Watford, Recent FormWatford will have been quite satisfied taking a point from their last match against Burnley, which ran out a 1-1 draw. During that encounter they had 31% possession and had 4 attempts on goal with 1 on target, while their opponents hit 5 of their 14 shots on goal.
While they have been reasonably effective at circumventing their opponents defence, scoring 7 in their last 6 games, it's largely been tit for tat with their own defence proving to be equally ineffectual, conceding 7, and leading to valuable points being dropped. They are showing great consistency in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 games. Unable to deliver a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, it's fair to say they have their troubles at the back.
They've drawn their last 3 games, but their search for a win in a league game extends even further with 5 consecutive games without a win.
Having scored 3 goals in his last 6 league games for Watford, João Pedro will be looking to keep his tally up with a goal in their next outing.
West Bromwich Albion, Recent FormWest Bromwich Albion will not be too disappointed to take a point from their 1-1 result against Blackburn Rovers last time out. Their share of possession in that meeting was 50%, while racking up 12 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Blackburn Rovers had 10 shots on goal with 4 on target.
Carlos Corberán will be quite satisfied with his squad's offensive prowess in recent performances. They have managed to notch up 7 goals from their last 6 outings. However, the manager will know they have work to do at the back where they have let in 7 goals and, as a result, lost some important points. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
It's been mixed fortunes for West Brom away from home recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games on the road.
Daryl Dike will be hoping to create problems for Watford in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for West Bromwich Albion.
Last time they met both teams got on the scoresheet, but the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
Watford have managed to keep a clean sheet against The Baggies in each of their previous 3 meetings at Vicarage Road Stadium. The Baggies defence has struggled against Watford in past meetings, having conceded 1 or more goals in each of their last 6 games.
Playing at home, Watford have won the last 2 and are unbeaten in the last 4 times they have faced West Brom in the league.
Watford manager Slaven Bilić has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Craig Cathcart (Groin), Tom Dele-Bashiru (Ligament), João Ferreira (Hamstring), Dan Gosling (Achilles tendon), Kortney Hause (Knee), Edo Kayembe (Calf) and Francisco Sierralta (Broken ankle) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Carlos Corberán has a number of injury concerns in his West Brom squad to contend with: Kyle Bartley (Foot), Alex Palmer (Knee) and Matt Phillips (Muscle)
