Watford - Bristol City betting tips and odds

The online bookies marked Watford as the favourites, which makes a lot of sense. Still, we wouldn’t put Bristol City winning beyond them – not to mention that draws are a strong possibility in relatively balanced games.

Bristol will have little to hope for in this match. 4.20 betting odds on them winning paint a pretty clear picture and from this standpoint there is little doubt in regard to the outcome of this clash.

Watford will have been pleased with an away point they won in the previous round of the Championship (HOME_LAST_ROUND_AWAY). They went against the odds(3.92) to take the first-half lead and surprise the opposing supporters. However, they ultimately failed to withstand the pressure and fell to a draw.

The 2:2 draw Bristol City recorded in the previous round can definitely be described as a minor success. They may have played that game at home, but they were still the clear underdogs in a relatively one-sided matchup. The goal they unexpectedly snagged in the early game turned out to be crucial for staving off defeat.

With 7 concessions over the last 3 matches, Watford will definitely have to make some improvements in their defensive line.

The home team had several opportunities to beat Bristol City this season, yet never managed to get anything other than a draw. They’re still considered the favourites, though, and the home-field advantage might be just what they need to break the stalemate.

Though the odds are against the visitors, at least they’ll be in a position to put up as much of a fight as possible. All of their lineup is accounted for in this match, with no issues from suspensions or injuries.

An Under 2.5 Goals bet combines the best of both worlds: it’s a fairly safe bet with a high probability of success, but it also offers decent betting value. You can place it on the Unibet priced at 1.68 odds.
