Watford form and stats
Watford's struggle is real here at Vicarage Road with only 7 points collected from 8 Premier League games. The win-draw-lost numbers are ugly: 2-1-5. Regardless of arena the trend is looking very unhealthy for Watford with their four defeats in a row. Not since the Manchester United game, 38 days ago, have they avoided a loss.
Watford faced defeat in their previous match, away at Brentford (1-2). Heartbreak for Watford in their last match as Brentford's Mbeumo scored the winning goal deep into overtime. Cathcart, defender, was given a rating of 7.3/10 in that game, top of the team. Cathcart won 7 of 8 duels.
Preceding that match was the home game against Manchester City that was lost 1-3.The match schedule is unforgiving for Watford as they have a new game in only four days, a Premier League match thankfully also at home. Tottenham Hotspur are visiting.
The Watford fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 10 in 8 matches. It's worth mentioning that 6 of these goals has been scored in their last three home matches. Watford have conceded 17 goals in these home games, a significant number. When Watford hosts teams that live on the top of the table (like Southampton, Norwich City, Leeds United, Everton, Newcastle United and Burnley), the matches have ended over 2.5 goals 3 of 3 times.

Preceding that game, the 1-2 loss visiting Tottenham Hotspur's place.There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the West Ham manager Moyes as the team has another away game coming up in only four days, this time against Crystal Palace.
West Ham are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 12 away goals from 9 games (in the league).
