Watford vs West Brom Albion
WATFORD, England (Interstat) — A mid-table Championship clash with playoff implications is set for Wednesday as Watford hosts West Bromwich Albion at Vicarage Road.
West Brom (5-3-1) enters the match in stronger form, sitting higher in the league table than their hosts. The Baggies are coming off a 2-1 home victory over Preston North End last Saturday. Their season, however, has been marked by inconsistency, with that win preceded by a 3-0 loss at Millwall.
Watford (3-4-1) looks to rebound on home turf after a 1-0 away loss to Sheffield United. The Hornets have struggled for results, with just one win in their last five league outings, a 2-1 victory at Oxford United on Oct. 4.
The statistical service Interstat projects a tightly contested 1-1 draw, a result that would see West Brom add a point to their total while Watford would halt their recent skid.
Following this fixture, West Brom travels to face Ipswich Town next Saturday. Watford prepares for a trip to Coventry City on the same day.
