Blackpool

It hasn’t been the best of seasons for Blackpool as they are third from the bottom in the 22nd position. In the previous round, The Seasiders failed to win for the ninth consecutive time after drawing 1-1 with Sunderland.

The bookies are favoring Watford to win this game with generous odds of 1.78. Obviously, there is a big difference between the two clubs be it in the results and their positions in the table. As a result, we will back Watford to win and grab all three points at Vicarage road.

Safe Bet

With 31 goals scored in 26 league games, Watford have the third-weakest attack among the top-ten teams. In addition, Watford scored 0.63 goals per game in the last eight games. With odds of 1.46 at 1xBet, we predict Watford to score under three goals.

Highlighted Player

In the absence of Watford’s top scorer Joao Pedro, all hopes will be on Ismaila Sarr to deliver the goals for his team. The Senegalese was on target six times this season and is one of the favorites to find the back of the net again on Saturday.
