Watford vs Norwich Prediction & Betting tips
Who makes the departure from the Premier League towards the Championship? The Watford hornets are at risk, but the canaries from Norwich are even worse off. For the team of Daniel Farke five matchdays before the end of the season there is little hope of remaining top notch in the coming season.
In the Premier League classification, Watford is only one point above the line with 28 points. On Tuesday, Nigel Pearson’s eleven could inflict the alleged death blow on the Canaries. In mathematical terms, Norwich cannot descend during the week, but seven points are already missing in the rear until Watford.
A defeat would most likely be goodbye to the Premier League for Daniel Farke and his German enclave. After the re-start, both clubs have only partially demonstrated their competitiveness. The Hornets did it a little better and that’s why the first forecast between Watford and Norwich is towards a home win.
For the guests, however, it is the last straw. If not now then when? A victory is needed to keep hope alive. For Daniel Farke and his kicker, only full offensive can be the motto. Nevertheless, on Tuesday at Vicarage Road, the tendency between Watford and Norwich to tip on a home win.
Watford:
If you are just one point ahead of the relegation zone, it seems a bit strange, but FC Watford is actually relatively successful at home this season. After all, Nigel Pearson’s team celebrated victories at Vicarage Road against top teams Manchester United, Wolverhampton and Liverpool.
Nevertheless, it is still tight and not only the best bookmakers see the Hornets as very endangered. Watford have only lost two home games since December, but the Hornets have only gained one point from their last five games in the Premier League. If it weren’t for the bottom, the odds of a home win between Watford and Norwich would be rather taboo.
In the end it was 0: 3. However, Watford still has everything in his own hand, even if there are still difficult tasks ahead, but especially in this English week with home games against Norwich and then Newcastle, important points are to be scored.
In the relegation duel against Norwich, Hornets Gerard Deulofeu, Isaac Success and Daryl Janmaat will still be missing. Otherwise, all players are on board. Craig Cathcart and Roberto Pereyra are reported to be slipping into the starting XI. For Danny Welbeck there is probably only one place left on the bench.
Norwich:
Immediately before the restart, Daniel Farke was extremely optimistic. He firmly believed in relegation. This belief may have seen some shocks in the past few weeks. Mathematically everything is still possible, but with a defeat on Tuesday on Vicarage Road, the last hope should be gone.
The coach no longer really believes in relegation anyway. There have been only defeats in the last five games in the Premier League. With the departure in the FA Cup, Norwich suffered six bankruptcies in a row and has been without points since the restart. That said, there is no reason to predict a guest win between Watford and Norwich.
In addition, the Canaries only scored six points abroad this season, making them the weakest away team in the Premier League.
So it is only logical that Norwich is treated as an outsider in the odds comparison of the betting base. Especially after losing 0-1 at home to Brighton at the weekend.
Teemu Pukki and Todd Cantwell are expected to start again at the straw game in Watford. Grant Hanley, Sam Bryan and Moritz Leitner, on the other hand, will continue to fail. Christoph Zimmermann has started training again, but should not play a role in Watford yet.
