Watford form and stats

When playing at home in the Premier League, Watford, who have the fewest scored goals (5) in Premier League, have managed 0 wins, 3 draws and suffered 2 defeats from 5 games. All in all it has been a very rough period for Watford who hasn’t won a game in their last ten attempts. Their previous win was against Brighton & Hove Albion, 84 days ago. Three draws from their last three home games means a steady supply of points here at Vicarage Road, but a victory now would be sweet for Watford.

In their previous game, the manager Quique Sánchez Flores led his Watford to a defeat in the Carabao Cup match away at Everton. The manager is hoping to put things right immediately here at Vicarage Road. In the match before that, Watford hosted AFC Bournemouth and drew the Premier League game 0-0.

Watford have scored 3 league goals here from 5 matches, not a lot. Defensively it’s touch-and-go for the home team as 8 goals have been conceded.

Chelsea form and stats

As the visiting team in Premier League matches, Chelsea, who have the most scored goals (16) away in Premier League, have produced an overall stat of 4-0-1 so far. Chelsea has been amazing away for a time now, winning four in a row on their travels. The last time they went home with a point loss was against Manchester United. The visitors have performed well in their home games as well, building a total win streak of four games home and away. Chelsea hope to make it five in this match.

This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Carabao Cup home defeat versus Manchester United with 1-2 on the scoreboard. Ahead of that match was the victory versus Burnley at their stadium, the result 4-2.

A quick return to home after this game, as Chelsea are hosting Ajax in the Champions League only three days away.

The prediction for this game is lots of goals as Chelsea alone have scored more than three on average in their league games away (16 from 5 played). Chelsea have conceded 11 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Watford-Chelsea H2H statistics last ten meetings regardless of arena: Watford 1 win, Chelsea 7 wins, 2 draws. 9 of these ten matches had three or more goals (over 2,5).
