    Watford Travel to Wolves in Bid to Avoid the Drop
    08/03/22 4219

    There are four matches to be played in the English Premier League on Thursday the 10th of March including the meeting between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Watford.

    The game will be played at Molineux Stadium and the hosts begin the match in 8th place on 40 points while the visitors are in 19th place on 19 points.

    Wolves come into the game on the back of a disappointing 2-0 home loss at the hands of Crystal Palace on the weekend. It was a match Wolves were expected to win but they conceded two goals in the first half and failed to break down The Eagles in the second half.

    That result means Wolves have lost each of their last 3 matches, all of which have come in the Premier League. In addition to the defeat at home by Crystal Palace, Wolves have lost at Arsenal and West Ham United.

    Home form shows Wolves have been struggling to win in recent games and they have recorded just a single victory from their last 4 home fixtures in all competitions. They have lost 3 of their last 4 matches at Molineux, with the only victory coming against Leicester City in the Premier League.

    Trends show Wolves have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 4 home Premier League games and under 2.5 goals have been scored in 6 of their last 8 on home soil in the league.

    Watford make the trip to Molineux Stadium having lost 3-2 at home to Champions League chasing Arsenal on the weekend. Despite the close final score, Arsenal fully deserved to take maximum points and Watford were 3-1 down for much of the game, only scoring their second goal with 3 minutes of the match remaining.

    That result means Watford have recorded just 1 win from their last 16 fixtures in all competitions, which is poor. They have won just 1 of their 15 most recent Premier League games but they have been difficult to beat in away matches.

    Trends show Watford have lost only 1 of their last 5 away Premier League matches, beating Aston Villa and picking up a point at Newcastle United, Burnley, and Manchester United.

    Watford have seen under 2.5 goals in each of their last 5 away Premier League games.

    Team news and Wolves are without two right-backs as Ki-Jana Hoever has joined Nelson Semedo on the treatment table. However, they are the only two absentees for the hosts, who should start with Raul Jimenez up-front.

    Watford are without the injured quartet of William Troost-Ekong, Jeremy Ngakia, Nicolas Nkoulou, and Ismaïla Sarr. Joshua King could return following injury but Peter Etebo is doubtful.

    This could be a close game but we expect over 2.5 scored in the match. Wolves will get the maximum points here at the expense of Watford.
