Prediction

  • Southampton enjoyed a surprisingly straightforward home victory against Coventry on Tuesday night as first-half goals from Kyle Walker-Peters and Che Adams set them on course for all three points.
  • The Saints were winless in three prior to that result but are still holding on to the faintest of automatic promotion hopes thanks to their two games in hand.
  • Watford turned in a gritty defensive performance on Wednesday night as they ground out a goalless draw away from home against promotion contenders Ipswich.
  • The Hornets will aim to replicate that display here, but Tom Cleverley will be keen to end a run of four successive draws in the Championship.
