Watford are 11th in the Premier League and host Newcastle United who have only two teams below them. The Hornets have six points from their five opening games of the league season. They began their return to the top-flight with a 3-2 home win over Aston Villa. However, their next three games were all lost with defeats at Brighton and Tottenham and at home to Wolves. Watford failed to score in any of those games. They got back into winning ways with a 3-1 victory at Norwich City last weekend. Ismaila Sarr scored twice in that win making it three in the Premier League this season.
Newcastle United are still looking for their first Premier League win of the season. They have two points from five games and are a point from safety. It's not a crisis yet for Steve Bruce but the longer his team goes without a win, the more calls there will be for a new coach to be appointed. There is hope though as they regularly find the back of the net. Wilson and Saint-Maxim give them a chance in any game they play. Only in the 2-0 loss at Aston Villa have both teams not scored in a Newcastle league game this season. Two of their last three Premier League games have been drawn and four of the last six away league fixtures has seen both teams get onto the scoresheet. Go for both teams to score in this match and for a final result, a draw looks a good side-bet.
