Watford vs Millwall Predictions

Javier Gracia’s Watford look the best bet when they host Millwall at Vicarage Road on Saturday. The hosts have enjoyed two straight Championship successes at home and will be confident of getting the win.

Millwall are fifth in the Championship, one place above sixth-placed Watford, with just two points separating the two sides. Both teams have won more games than they’ve lost this season, with Millwall having 12 wins and Watford 11.

Watford maintained their winning habit with a 3-0 home victory over Birmingham, having opened the scoring in their last four games. They have won ten of the 13 matches in which they’ve scored first this season (77%).

Watford are in fine form going forward, having scored in 15 consecutive Championship games. They have found the net in 18 of their last 19 league matches, including a recent 3-0 victory over Birmingham.

Watford are in form, having won five of their last seven Championship games. They have gone ten home matches unbeaten and are on a run of four consecutive wins.

The hosts have kept things tight at the back this term, with Watford keeping out their opponents in three of their last four games in the Championship.

The home side are the most profitable home team in the Championship this season. Backing Watford to a one-point level stake in all their home games would have shown a profit of 5.15 units.

Millwall are enduring a rough spell on the road, having failed to win six of their last seven Championship away games. They have now gone three matches without an away victory.

The visitors have looked vulnerable at the back, with Millwall failing to keep a clean sheet in five of their last seven Championship games.

A narrow 1-0 victory for Watford looks the most likely outcome in the correct-score market. The hosts have been winners in three of their last four Championship home games and have won three of their last four matches by the odd goal.
