AFC Bournemouth vs Watford Predictions

• Watford have won their last four games
• Only two Championship sides have lost more games in 2021 than Bournemouth
• The Hornets have the best record in the division since the turn of the year

Hornets to hold off Bournemouth

Watford haven’t recorded five straight wins in almost six years, in their last season in the Championship before winning promotion. They could match that run on Saturday, with their recent winning streak putting them level on points with second-placed Brentford.

Meanwhile, Bournemouth have struggled since appointing Jonathan Woodgate until the end of the season. After losing their last two games, they now have more Championship losses in 2021 (six) than all but two sides.

Meanwhile, no team have picked up more points in 2021 than Watford. Having started the season with a poor away record, 11 points from their last five trips has boosted their record on their travels.

Watford have only lost one of their last 12 away league matches against Bournemouth (W6 D5). We’re backing them to claim the points here, with the Hornets good value on the Draw No Bet market. Bournemouth have scored and lost in four of their last seven, so we’re backing a 2-1 Watford win.
