Watford vs Crystal Palace Prediction & Betting tips
During the sixteenth game round of the Premier League, Watford closes the Crystal Palace in South London. Crystal Palace won the last two games it played and continues to keep in touch with the Premier League sub-teams in a victory on Vicarage Road.
Watford:
Quique Sánchez Flores was fired by Watford last weekend after the 2-1 defeat at Southampton and at the time of writing, The Hornets have not yet appointed a replacement for the Spaniard. The expectation is that Hayden Mullins will once again be sitting at Watford against Crystal Palace, something that Mullins did last Wednesday during the Watford game at Leicester City (2-0 loss).
At the King Power Stadium, Watford held the clear for more than fifty minutes until it was awarded a penalty. In the final seconds, Leicester City also made it 2-0, which meant the fifth defeat for Watford in the last six games. Moreover, during those five losses, Watford always had to collect two or more goals and in those five duels it only came to two hits. The Hornets are now seven points behind the relegation line. It is not surprising that Watford is falling further behind the competition; Watford did not win eighteen of the last nineteen league matches.
Crystal Palace:
Crystal Palace has thirteen points more than Watford a state in the broad subtop of the Premier League. Roy Hodgson has set himself the goal of maintaining himself with Crystal Palace and the old English coach is well on his way to achieving that goal a few months before the end of the season. Last season you needed at least 35 points for enforcement and that would mean that Crystal Palace would only have to get 14 points in the next 23 games.
Palace already took action on Tuesday evening and faced AFC Bournemouth in-house. Mamadou Sakho received a direct red card at Selhurst Park within twenty minutes. As a result, Crystal Palace played with Bournemouth with ten men for over an hour and managed to keep the nil and wonder for it. Jeffrey Schlupp made the only goal of the evening fifteen minutes before the end, giving Palace the second win in a row. If Crystal Palace also beats Watford on Saturday afternoon, The Eagles will take nine points in the Premier League within a week. It shows once again that Crystal Palace is currently – compared to previous seasons – not a gray mouse in the Premier League.
