Watford vs Everton Prediction & Betting tips
Watford, which is under the line, will be visited by Everton on Saturday afternoon on Vicarage Road. Watford has been unbeaten for five consecutive home games and has won the last three home games against Everton, but the bookmakers still see Everton as a light favorite for this game.
Watford:
Watford is in nineteenth place in the Premier League and naturally wants to leave the relegation zone as quickly as possible. Then The Hornets have to quickly grab points in the Premier League, although it is all close together in the lower regions of the Premier League. For example, Watford has only two points less than Brighton & Hove Albion, the current number fifteen in the English league. At Watford, they have full confidence in manager Nigel Pearson, because Pearson has already taken the necessary important points with his team.
However, Pearson and his team were surprised in the FA Cup last Thursday. At the beginning of January, Watford gave away a 3-0 lead against Tranmere Rovers in the FA Cup and last week the return match was scheduled. After extension, Watford lost 2-1 to the relegation candidate from the League One and Pearson can blame his team for that. Every disadvantage, on the other hand, also has its advantage: the cup elimination means that Watford can focus entirely on enforcement in the Premier League for the rest of the season.
Everton:
At Everton they only settle for three points on Saturday afternoon when The Toffees have to visit Watford. Carlo Ancelotti has already guided Everton to twelfth place in the Premier League, but the supporters expect more from their club. That is rightly so, because this Everton must at least end up in the left-hand row and usually Everton will succeed too. Ancelotti is in any case quite busy with The Toffees, although the last two games did not produce the desired results for Everton.
Two weeks ago Everton came no further than a 1-1 draw to visit West Ham United. Last Tuesday, The Toffees played a home game against Newcastle United at home. Everton was leading 2-0 within the hour and that was still the case in the 89th minute. In the extra time, however, Everton goalkeeper Jordan Pickford had to take two more goals and The Toffees let a victory slip out of their hands against Newcastle United. So the team of Ancelotti has something to put right and that must be done when visiting Watford.
