WATFORD - BARNSLEY PREDICTIONS AND PREVIEW: BETTING STATS

League Form:

Watford   P19 W9 D3 L7  Pts 30 GF30 GA27 GD+5  - Average goals per game: 3.17

TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY

Watford continued their good run with an easy 4-1 away win at Sheffield Wednesday. Yet again they dominated a match for its entirety. Watford are one of the inform sides in the division. With fours wins from 6 games unbeaten, included in this was a series of difficult games against the leagues top sides. This is always a good indicator for when they play a lesser side. Gianfranco Zola seems to have a settled side now and the quality within his team is of a high standard even for this level. Strikers Troy Deeney and Matej Vydra are aiming for recalls but will find it difficult to walk back into a team which is playing at such a high level.

Barnsley’s terrible run of form continues, with no wins in eight games now and 5 of them defeats. The only good news is the return of top scorer Craig Davies. Keith Hill has been working hard to bring in an injection of fresh blood to the side,striker Marcus Tudgay arrived late last week and is a decent forward. This week Hill has managed to bag striker Emile Sinclair from Peterborough, along with midfielders Akos Buzsaky and Johnathon Greening. Last time out Barnsley fought in a decent 1-1 draw with Burnley. Keith Hill is likely to name an unchanged side as he has no new problems.
