Liverpool vs Watford: Preview and Prediction

England Premier League
Saturday 17th March 2018
Kick off at 5:30pm GMT
Venue: Anfield

Match Preview:

After losing 2-1 against eternal rivals Manchester United last weekend Liverpool will have to brush themselves down, realise that they are still one of the best teams in the league on form and concentrate on Watford. The Reds will start as odds on favourites to get all three points and with their rivals playing in the FA Cup this weekend this will be a great opportunity to make their mark on the league.

Liverpool have slipped to 4th place but a win here would see them in 3rd place and go two points in front of Tottenham and two points behind Manchester United. Alongside Manchester City, Liverpool are the only team in the league who remain unbeaten at home. Whilst this is a great record we have to remember that they have drawn 6 (40%) of these home games.

Watford look safe in 10th place with 36 points, with over 60% of their points coming at home. However, their away form remains very poor having lost 9 of their 15 games and from their past 5 away games they have no wins, gaining just 1 point. Their last away game ended in a 3-0 defeat against Arsenal.
