Watford Southampton betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be the existence of goals in both goals. Watford have a very complicated opponent ahead, however, the need for victory is very great. Because of this, Watford should play a more open match, trying to score in the first 45’, making the match more open and with several finishing opportunities. From Southampton we expect a confident team in the counterattack. So, we believe that the two teams can score at least one goal.
