The match

Watford will seek to keep their promotion hopes alive when they play host to another promotion chasing side – Blackburn – in their next Championship game. There’s just one point between these two sides, with Watford fifth on 45 points and Blackburn seventh with 44. Both sides have been on the slip in recent matches and will want to bounce back here. The 2-2 draw with Reading in the last game was Watford’s third straight outing without a win in the league. They have one win only in the last five matches across all competitions – a 2-0 win over Blackpool. In the Championship, they haven't won their last three games and their home form in the league has been inconsistent. Watford have only managed four wins in their last 10 home league matches, and kept four clean sheets in the run.

Blackburn Rovers haven't had a great run as well coming into this fixture and their top six ambitions have taken a hit. They are coming from a 0-0 draw with Wigan Athletic, the second time in five matches that they failed to score, and another low scoring game for the visitors.in the last 10 matches across all competitions, Blackburn have scored more than a goal in just one game. They come into this game with one win in the last five matches but they have two straight clean sheets. Their only win in five games was in the FA Cup replay against Birmingham City, which ended 1-0. While they have one win in five matches, Blackburn have not lost in their last four matches. In the last six away league matches, Blackburn Rovers have posted just one win.

Key Statistics

  • Watford have no win in their last three Championship matches.
  • Watford have one win in their last five matches in all competitions.
  • Blackburn Rovers have three draws in their last four league matches.
  • Blackburn Rovers have one win in their last six away league matches.
  • Watford have conceded two or more goals in three of their last five matches.

The bet of our experts

Blackburn Rovers have slipped out of the top six but they have a game in hand. They are just a point off the promotion playoff slots and will want to get back there with a win here. They haven't won a lot though in their recent matches. Watford will want to stay in the top six and a crowded race means that can only be assured with a win here. Both teams are under pressure here and going by their recent performances, our prediction for the Watford v Blackburn Rovers game is a draw.
