Perhaps a welcome break from league football as Tranmere Rovers & Watford face off to decide who makes it to next stage of the FA Cup. All the pre-match information is available here!

Watford could be less fresh than the hosts in this fixture, as they played a Premier League game only two sleeps ago. That game, against Aston Villa, was also an away game. It's a tiring schedule for Watford.

Tranmere Rovers form and stats

Last season, Tranmere Rovers's FA Cup journey ended in the 3rd round.

Overall League One stats at home this season for Tranmere Rovers are 3-5-5 (wins-draw-losses). This match is a FA Cup match, and the hometeam has the total statistics 2 wins, 2 draws and 0 losses in this competition. Two defeats in a row at home hurts for Tranmere Rovers, their manager M. Mellon and the supporters. There are certain expectations for improvement.

The Tranmere Rovers crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-2 to Ipswich Town here at Prenton Park in a League One match. A 0-0 draw away in the League One before that, with Southend United the opponent.

Tranmere Rovers are traveling soon after this match as the League One match at Blackpool awaits in two days.

Tranmere Rovers are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 19 goals in 13 games. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 20 goals have been conceded.

Watford form and stats

Watford was sent out of FA Cup in the final last season.

The hunting on away grounds haven’t been very fruitful for Watford so far with only 9 points returning home. The records show 2-3-7 (win-draw-lose).

It might be tough going out on the road again for Watford, facing their second straight away game. Especially as the previous game, ended with a defeat 1-2 versus Aston Villa. Preceding that match was the 0-0 draw at home vs Tottenham Hotspur.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Watford as they have only managed to score 10 times from 12 away games in the league. Watford have conceded 22 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Watford - Tranmere Rovers 3-3 was the story when these teams last met, earlier this season.
