Watford vs Preston Predictions

Tip Reasoning

  • Under 2.5 goals has been a winner in three of each side’s last five
  • Watford average 1.00 goals conceded per game at home this season
  • Both sides have drawn three of their last five league games
  • Preston have the fourth best away form in the Championship

Preston’s away form

Preston North End have been fantastic away from home this season and, having recorded 28 points in 16 games on the road, have the fourth best away record in the league. They currently sit mid-table, largely due to their impressive form on the road, as their home form and goalscoring presence have been almost non-existent, as the Lilywhites rank third from bottom for both home form and goals scored.

Their impressive away form, combined with their opponents Watford having won just two of their last five home games in the league, suggests that Preston will have enough in them to get a result on Saturday. Both teams have drawn three of their last five games, and this trend looks set to continue if PNE can keep up their strong away record here, with a prediction of a 1-1 correct score looking good.

A lack of goals

Preston have struggled for goals this season, ranking third from bottom when it comes to goals scored, but their defensive form has been impressive and they have kept a clean sheet in 50% of their away fixtures this season.

Watford, meanwhile, have seen less than 2.5 goals in three of their last five games, and in 62% of all of their games this season. The Hornets average just 1.00 goals conceded at home this season, directly clashing with their opponents goal scoring record. A prediction for under 2.5 goals in this game looks good, as Preston struggle to score while Watford also lack goals.
