Burnley have come here for an intriguing fight versus the home side Watford. Prepare for the fixture with this full Championship preview!

These are active days for the host team, as they had a game only four days ago in the Championship. At least it's nice to return home after that away game at West Bromwich Albion.

Watford form and stats

Watford have only played one Championship game here so far, a win. Last season their home statistics were 2 wins, 2 draws and 15 defeats from 19 matches.

An away draw last time out for Watford, facing West Bromwich Albion in a game that ended 1-1. Watford's goalie Bachmann played a big part in securing a draw after 90 minutes against West Bromwich Albion with a stunning six saves.

Before that game, the 1-0 home victory against Sheffield United.

This is expected to be a close game, with Watford perhaps considered small favourites due to their home advantage. Looking back at earlier matches similar to this one (expected to be close with Watford as a small favourite), we find 7 games. Watford has won 4 of these, drawn 2 and lost 1.

The manager Edwards will start preparations for the next game as soon this is finished, as the hosts are going to Birmingham City in only four days.

It's still early days, but we have some goal stats for the Watford at home in the league. 1 on target and 0 scored by the opposition; from 1 match.
