Bitesize Prediction: Watford vs Norwich – 10/15/22

Competition: Championship

Market: Both teams to score

Rating: 4/5 @

In a league showdown that could see chances at both ends of the field, Watford host Norwich on Saturday afternoon.

Starting with the hosts, as new Watford boss Slaven Bilic might have opened his tenure with a crushing 4-0 win at Stoke on October 2, the Hornets have really come down to earth. Now barely clinging to his place in the top half of the Championship table, the former West Ham boss knows he has a lot of work to do. Last seen having a nightmare as they were hit by a 3-1 clash at Blackpool, Watford have now managed to pick up just one win from any of their previous six second-place clashes. level. With this pessimistic form dating back to the end of August, the hosts on Saturday showed some rather glaring problems at the back. It should be noted that the Hornets have only recorded one clean sheet in one of their last nine outings.

As for the visitors, while Norwich could still find themselves leading the hunt to secure an immediate return to the Premier League this season, Dean Smith is also suffering his own recent and worrying problem. Last seen getting knocked out in an action-packed 3-2 loss at home to Preston, the former Aston Villa boss has seen his side win just one of their previous four Championship clashes. Similarly, playing a pair of 1-1 draws against Reading and West Brom on this run, Norwich have also recorded just one clean sheet since September 3. However, after picking up a resounding 3-0 victory in their last showdown against Watford last season, we could have another sweet deal here. Likewise, with Saturday's guests seeing five of their last six contests end with both teams finding the net, we're backing a similar outcome here.

Bet: Both teams will score at Watford v Norwich 4/5 for Saturday's Championship battle @
