Watford vs Nottingham Forest Predictions

• Watford have won five of their last six games
• The Hornets boast the league’s best home record
• Forest are winless against the top six (D2 L5)

Home comforts for Hornets

Watford cruised to a 2-0 victory over Wycombe in midweek and we’re backing another Vicarage Road success for them in our predictions.

Watford sit third after a stellar run in 2021, which has put them hot on the heels of second-placed Brentford. Watford come into this game with five wins in six behind them, while Forest are fresh from a home loss to Luton.

The Hornets have the Championship’s best home record after winning 13 of 17 home games this term. They’ve won each of their last three at Vicarage Road, which should see off Forest.

Forest have lost away from home to each member of the top nine so far, while they’re winless against the top six (D2 L5). Following that, we’re backing a home win here, while a 2-0 victory for the Hornets is our pick with Forest struggling for goals.
