Watford’s fight for promotion to the Premier League meets Charlton Athletic’s battle to remain a Championship team next season. The Hornets are just eight points off the top promotion playoffs, but now face an Addicks’ side that will be fighting to keep their 8-point gap over the relegation zone. Stick around for our match prediction.
The home side, who were largely successful for most of the season, have now hit a roadblock in the most crucial chapter. The Hornets have now taken only one win from their last five games (a run that included two defeats and two draws). The latest outing was a disappointing 2-1 away win at QPR.
An immediate bounce back is the only way Watford’s dream of the EPL next season remains alive. But it’s Charlton they face, the same team that dominated and won their first meeting this season. And now, The Addicks are fighting, with literally their Championship lives on the line.
If they continue their two-game losing streak, following their defeats against Norwich and Bristol City, Charlton just might find themselves in a very uncomfortable conversation in the final six games.
