Watford vs Reading Predictions

• Watford have won three of their last four matches
• Reading are on a dreadful run of one win in eight outings
• The Royals have been beaten six times in just nine away league fixtures

Watford primed to bounce back

Watford lost 1-0 to Coventry at the weekend, but they will be hoping that was merely a bump in the road for their promotion push as it followed three successive victories.

Slaven Bilic admits his squad are feeling tired after that defeat, so he may well rotate as he looks to get back into the play-off positions.

The Hornets, while inconsistent at times, have also steadily picked up five victories in ten outings at Vicarage Road, including recent successes against high-flying Luton and Norwich.

Reading heading for trouble?

Reading flirted with the top six until last month, but they have now won just one of their last eight fixtures, suffering five defeats in the process.

Paul Ince’s side head to Watford on a four match winless streak on the road, losing three times against sides in the promotion race; QPR, Swansea and Burnley.

Indeed, no team in the Championship has lost more away games than the Royals, six, while they have only scored six times as well, a joint low for the division.

I predict that Watford will win this game, with 2-0 my correct score prediction.
