PREVIEW
This will be a value play because we are getting over even money on Huddersfield at home against the team lying 20th in the league. Huddersfield Town are 2nd and have conceded less than half their visitors total, so the home win cannot be ignored.
Huddersfield have done well in recent meetings against Watford, beating them in 5 of their last 7 meetings, losing just 1. I mentioned Huddersfield have conceded less than half Watford's 13 this term. It's just 6 goals leaked in 7 games, which is the 2nd best defence in the Championship this term.
That's not to say the games aren't seeing goals. Because Huddersfield have been banging them in recently. The last 2 games have seen them win 3-1 against both highflying Blackpool and Sheffield Wednesday. Those were away games as well, making them even more impressive.
Back at home, Huddersfield's defence really does shine. Their last 2 games here have seen them win without conceding, beating Derby 1-0 and Burnley 2-0. Watford have scored 9 so far, an average of over 1 per game, but they are now without a win in 5 matches. Their weekend 2-2 draw against Bristol City came after a torrid run that saw them beaten in 4 straight games, conceding 10 and scoring just 3.
BETTING VERDICT
Nothing more need be said. Huddersfield at home in the form they're in, playing Watford in the form they're in? Only one winner. At 2.10 this is a great bit of value.
The Pick :
Huddersfield Town 3-1 Watford
