Watford will be eager to bounce back when they host Coventry City, after losing their perfect start at the start of September. The Hornets are placed third going into this Saturday match against the Sky Blues. Read on for our prediction.
After a fine start to the season, Watford had their first stumble before leaving for the international break. An early Daniel Bachmann own goal handed Sheffield United a 1-0 win over Watford. That ended their run of five straight wins to start the season.
Tom Cleverley’s side failed to score for the first time this term across all competitions. That defeat was also their first away game in five. As they return to Vicarage Road, Watford are expected to restore normalcy.
They have four straight home wins, keeping three clean sheets and conceding just one goal.
Coventry City arrive for this game at risk of suffering their first loss against Watford in six matches. They last lost to Watford in 2020 and they’ve scored in each of their last four meetings.
A 1-0 defeat at home to Norwich in their last outing was a surprise, bringing their four-game unbeaten streak to a halt. Two of those four matches were in the League Cup and here they’ll be looking to avoid a third defeat in the league.
In both their league losses, Coventry City failed to score. There’s a possibility the same may happen again here, based on their erratic away form.
Mark Robins’ charges come here without a win in the last five Championship matches on the road. They also failed to score in three of four away matches in the league.
