Watford – Reading, Prediction – Championship

⏩ Watford is very stable at home

Watford have 10 wins in their last 11 games and are in second place with not so much a difference from Brentford, who have a game less. So far, the Hornets look like a team that will deservedly enter the Premier League, but this is not certain. In the previous match, they could not beat Middlesbrough, who circulate a little above the middle of the table and have virtually no chance for the top 6. Watford need at least 3 more wins until the end of the championship given the not very stable form of Brentford and Swansea.

📑 Reading finally won the important 3 points

Reading has been facing serious tests recently. Mostly mentally. Are the Royals ready to at least finish in the top 6? 3 points in 4 games were not at all positive in this direction, while Bournemouth is winning game after game and is only a point behind Reading, but the latter won hard with 3-1 over Derby in the intermediate round. The battle for Reading continues in full force.

Extremely tough match. We expect a lot of tactics and caution

 Expert view: Watford have barely conceded goals at home lately. In particular, the hornets have 8 clean sheets from the last 10 home matches and have conceded a total of 3 goals in these meetings, which is the least impressive. Reading had a hard time scoring in previous games, and in this case, even at the risk of temporarily losing their place in the top 6, Reading would accept a draw in this situation, simply because they are underdogs in the match. We expect both teams to approach quite cautiously and not to take unnecessary risks, because the stakes are huge. Prediction – Under 2.5 goals at 1.66.
