Watford, Recent FormThe Watford players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Blackpool recently, that ended in a 3-1 defeat. During that encounter they recorded 73% of the possession and had 10 attempts on goal with 5 on target, while their opponents managed to hit 9 of their 18 shots on goal.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 9 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 10 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 games. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Ismaïla Sarr will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 3 goals in the last 6 league games for Watford.
Norwich City, Recent FormThe Norwich City squad will be suffering from a feeling of disappointment after falling to a 3-2 home defeat against Preston North End, which saw them drop all three points and come away from the game empty-handed. Their share of possession in that meeting was 62%, while racking up 17 shots along the way, 8 of which were on target, in contrast to the numbers reached by Preston North End, who had 8 shots on goal with 5 on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 11, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 7 goals and some valuable points in the process. They are consistently finding a way through on goal, scoring in each of their last 12 games.
Unbeaten in 5 of their last 6 matches can be counted as a good run of form, particularly with 3 victories included.
Having scored 4 goals in his last 6 league games for Norwich City, Teemu Pukki will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
After a good 0-3 win for Norwich City in this pair's last league encounter, Watford will certainly be looking for a better result this time round.
Playing away from home, Norwich have scored in 2 of their last 3 league games against Watford.
Watford manager Slaven Bilić has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match.
