Burnley at Watford 1/19/19 - Premier League Picks & Predictions

Watford are coming into this match after a pretty good away win against Crystal Palace and have been slowly getting better lately. They will now return at home after three away matches, where they will play host to Burnley on Saturday. Burnley have struggled a lot lately but are coming into this match after four consecutive wins.

Watford (9-8-5) were not very good in the first half of their away match against Crystal Palace but got their act back together and overturned the lead in the second half to eventually win by 2-1. That was their second consecutive win and they are now undefeated in their last four (2-0-2). Watford are now sitting at the 7th spot of the league table with 32 points, one ahead of Leicester and West Ham. They have been hit-or-miss at home so far (5-5-1) but have won just once in their last five (1-3-1). Burnley (6-13-3) are coming off a really lucky 1-2 win at home against Fulham in their last match, where they actually failed to record a single shot on target. Their opponents scored two own goals in the first half to hand out the victory. Burnley have now won four in a row in all competitions, conceding just twice in that span. They are now sitting at the 15th spot of the Premier League with 21 points, just three ahead of the relegation zone. They have been weak on the road so far (2-7-2) and have failed to score in three of their last five.

Watford easily won by 3-1 on the road earlier in the season, but Burnley won both matches last season. The last six matches between the two sides in this venue have featured goals form both sides, and five of those had at least Over 2.5 Goals. I will follow that trend as these two teams are prone to high-scoring matches.
