Bristol City, Recent FormBristol City will have been quite satisfied taking a point from their last match against Middlesbrough, which ran out a 1-1 draw. They came away from that fixture with 28% of the possession and clocked up 6 attempts on goal with 2 on target. By comparison, Middlesbrough managed 23 attempts on goal, with 9 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 5 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 7 and seen valuable points lost. They are struggling defensively and as a result have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
It's been a disappointing spell of home league form lately, having managed to rack up just 1 victory and 3 defeats in their last 6 matches.
Watford, Recent FormWatford will be happy to take away 3 points from their last match, with an important 2-0 home win against Reading. They achieved 54% possession in that match and had 15 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Reading's tally of 6 efforts at goal, 1 of which were on target.
Manager Slaven Bilić will be reasonably pleased with his team's performances in front of goal, with them having scored 9 goals in their last 6 games, but will want to tighten up his defence with 5 goals conceded in the same period. On the road, they are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 4 of their last 6 away games.
They have had a good run of form recently, winning 4 out of their last 6 games.
