Watford host Bournemouth in the 7th round of the Championship at the Vicarage Road (Watford) on Saturday, October 24 and the match kicks off at 12.30pm (UK).
MATCH PREVIEW
Watford have moved up the table to 3rd with 13 points after their latest win against Blackburn (3-1).Prior to that they won at struggling Derby (0-1) and suffered the first league defeat to Reading in the 4th week (1-0), after two identical 1-0 victories against Middlesbrough and Luton and a goalless draw with Sheffield Wed.
As for Bournemouth, they are still unbeaten, sitting one place below the Hornets with 12 points after an away draw (1-1) at Cardiff. Having won against Blackburn (3-2) on the opening day, Norwich in the third round (1-0) and most recently against Coventry (1-3), they have had to settle with a point from two successive draws with Middlesbrough (0-0) and Cardiff (1-1).
MATCH ANALYSIS
The Hornets almost managed to stay up last season, but it wasn’t meant to be, as the Hornets ended their five-year stay in the Premier League. They are back in the Championship and in former Serbian international Vladimir Ivić have a relatively unknown new manager. They are definitely looking to get back immediately to top flight and hope that a new manager can set the foundations to their quick return to Premier League.
After three solid performances on the trot they lost to Reading, but bounced back against Derby where Joao Pedro's magnificent curling strike earned them an away victory in a scrappy encounter otherwise short on quality and incident. Watford continued their impressive start to the Championship season with victory over Blackburn Rovers, who fell to a second straight loss despite dominating at Vicarage Road.
The Cherries moved to the top of the Championship, albeit temporarily at least, with victory over 10-man Coventry City in the 4th round. They followed it wit a draw against QPR in a lacklustre display at Vitality Stadium. Meanwhile, they have signed Tottenham Hotspur centre-back Cameron Carter-Vickers on a season-long loan, as Jason Tindall's second signing after Atletico Madrid winger Rodrigo Riquelme.
If there was any uncertainty surrounding the Cherries at the start of the new campaign, which made it very difficult to predict how their season will pan out, it seems like it has gone now as Bournemouth have started the season with a six-matches unbeaten run (W3-D3). In any case, it's too early to get carried away, but in any scenario they should at least contest for one of the play-off spots.

These two team have been involved in 15 matches since 2013.
60% of those matches ended in draws (9), while Watford has an upper hand with 4 wins to Bournemouth’s 2.
Hornets backline had conceded just once in their previous five league matches.
The Cherries are without a win in their last three head-to-head matches (D2-L1).
The stakes are high and a tight game is expected,
So, my prediction is: Under 2.5 goals
3-5-2
3-4-2-1

Tucker grew up in London, more precisely in West London. But, unlike many locals, he doesn’t like big and famous teams from that part of the city. Instead, ever since he was a kid, Tucker was passionate for lower divisions. This passion was born when his uncle from Reading took him to the local derby with Aldershot Town when he was 6 and since that moment football was running through his veins. He became a huge fan of the Royals for life, and whenever he could, he goes to Madejski Stadium to enjoy the game. Apart from being a job, his sports knowledge also becomes more than useful when he is betting live on high stakes which is also his passion.
