Brighton vs Watford Preview & Tip


Category: England Championship Venue: AMEX Stadium(Brighton) Kick-off: 13:15 25/05/2015 CET This is season to forget for Brighton and their manager Chris Hughton. With 2 games left Brighton is safe on 20th place. They've got 46 points with ratio of 10-16-18. Their ambitions were that they could reach at least play-off but they could hope that play-off will be accomplished next season. They are waiting for the season to end and you can see that in their last 5 games. They've lost 4 and drew 1. They are entering in this game after a loss against Wigan. They are preety good on their home turf, if we look at their position. At home they scored 26 and conceded 27. They are team that likes to play with a solid defence and 52 goals conceded explains everything. If we look at last 5 fixtures where they played against mighty Cherries and Norwich, in those two matches they've conceded only three goals wich is preety good. They have two absences and those are: Sam Baldock(3 Goals) and Solly March. On the other side we have mighty Hornets, led by Troy Deeney, who are rushing to get promoted. Entering in this game after a 4 games win in a row they'll try to continue that run on AMEX Stadium. Last match they played against Birmingham and they won not so easily. If we look at the stats only 1:0 is preety weak for Watford. But in this 4 games win in a row, they've beat Middlesbrough, Nottingham, Milllwall and Birmingham. In those 4 games they've conceded only one goal wich is amazing stats. Watford have been undefeated in their last 8 away games. Trough the season Watford managed to collect 85 points and curently they are 1st with 2 games left. Every team has got easy schedual if we look at the teams that are fighting for promotion. Those are Bournemouth,Middlesbrough and Norwich. Ofcourse Watford is in best position and they know how much is important this for them, to get back to Premier League. Their home-away ratio is almost same, wich is wierd but still good for them. They've managed to won 40points on away turfs and score 41 goal. That's 2 goals a game wich is amazing stats. I've already mentioned their cap. Deeney who scored 20 goals, wich is their true leader, but there are other player that are amazing. Ighalo(20 goals) working up front with Deeney and Vydra(14 goals) working in mid-field are important for Watford and they'll try to keep them on the team for next season. If we look at the tomorows fixtures every favorite should win, but someone will have bad day or something. Watford is on a run and they sould not drew here. Because they are playingin 13:15 if they won, they could hope for promotion if results in other games go their way. Bet: Watford to win @1.85 Long shot bet: Watford to win HT/FT @2.80
