Watford vs Arsenal Match Preview

Published: Updated: 12:59, 10 Mar 2022

Prediction: 0-2 
Tip: Handicap (-1) - Arsenal 

Key Points:

1. Watford haven't won at home in their last 7 matches
2. Arsenal is ranked 7th in goals scored per match (1.6 goals)
3. Arsenal haven't lost to Watford in their last 6 meetings (5W, 1D) 

Arsenal travels to Vicarage Road for Premier League's Matchday 28 to face Watford this Sunday.

Watford has earned a much-needed point after their last meeting against Manchester United. Roy Hodgson's outfit is currently 19th in the standings and is desperate to get out of the perishable danger zone.

With 19 points secured in 26 games, the Hornets are three points adrift of safety. In terms of their recent form- the outfit has achieved underwhelming results by suffering three losses with a draw and a win in their last five games.

Arsenal is doing contrastingly well. Despite the harsh initial criticism, Mikel Arteta had delivered when it mattered the most to see Arsenal placed at sixth in the standings. It is critical to note that the side has played three games less than the others.

In their last five games, Arsenal has earned three victories with a draw and a loss. The Gunners can rapidly move up the rankings by delivering a favorable result.

Over the last few weeks, Arteta's side has enjoyed watching the teams at the 4th and 5th places drop some massive points for the Champions League spots. A win for the Londoners would take them above Manchester United at 4th, with two games in hand.

There is no doubt that Watford held on to snatch a point from their last game and will be riding the high tides of confidence. However, it will demand a lot if they want to replicate one of those rare performances back-to-back against the visitors. We don't see the lightning striking twice for Watford, and Arsenal is well versed with the expectations from fixtures such as these.

The hosts will lack having Nicolas Nkoulou due to injury. Ismaïla Sarr, Peter Etebo, Kiko Femenía remain in doubt due to their fitness. For the visitors, only Takehiro Tomiyasu remains out.
