Watford vs Sunderland Prediction & Betting tips
The curtain seems already fallen for Sunderland, but we have in the past often similar ‘great escapes’ seen from this team. Profit at Watford would thus be helping a lot.
Watford :
Watford can be found on the fourteenth place in the Premier League. With a little luck is Watford after this weekend just four points from the relegation line and suddenly very exciting. The Hornets currently have seven points more than number eighteen Hull City, and played a game less. The shape of Watford right now is not to write home about.
The defeat at Crystal Palace two weeks ago Watford has to look back again. Mazzarri’s team still need a few points to be completely safe. Watford played, like Palace, a bad game in attack. No chances were created, and most of the shots Watford were reasonable distance. To make matters worse scorer Troy Deeney scored the only goal of the match in his own goal. This Palace awarded him the victory without the team Allardyce even had managed to solve one shot.
Troy Deeney now has two own goals for Watford to his name. No player in the selection that has been done before; He is on two sides scorer Watford. With nine goals he has an important share in the 33 goals from Watford to date. Against a team like Sunderland he would still be able to get this number some boost.
Probable lineup Watford
Gomes, Cathcart, Kaboul, Prödl, Holebas, Capoue, Behrami, Cleverley, Amrabat, Deeney, Niang
Sunderland :
It is often said, but the chance that Sunderland remains in the Premier League is virtually nil. The backlog at number ten as Swansea stands at seven points. Although Sunderland have played a game less, but the team has this season but won five games in the Premier League. Then get behind on seven points, even with a game credit, not so easy to undo.
Two weeks ago Sunderland played at home is very important game against Burnley. That match ended in a 0-0 draw, and there Sunderland lap absolutely nowhere. It was actually a contest at all costs to be recovered. In the first half Sunderland was the lesser party towards Burnley, but the second half was the team of David Moyes. Sunderland did get chances to win, but confidence was far, very far to seek.
Sunderland now has four games in a row and not won in those four games made Sunderland also another no goal. Seven went one by one lost the last eight away games and in six of those eight away games Sunderland not scored. In this respect, the 0-4 victory at Crystal Palace so a very odd man out.
Probable lineup Sunderland
Pickford, Jones, Koné, O’Shea, Oviedo, Ndong, Gibson, Borini, Januzaj, Larsson, Defoe
