Watford - Sheffield Wednesday betting tips and odds

Watford are firm favourites in this matchup, and backing them may offer surprising betting value. It’s a very safe bet, though we suppose an upset is not outside the realm of possibility. We wouldn’t count on Sheffield Wednesday winning, though.

It’s hard to believe even the most optimistic Sheffield W. fans are expecting them to triumph at Watford this Friday. It’s a completely one-sided matchup, and the hosts should have no problems steamrolling their opponents.

Watford pushed the home advantage hard in their previous outing against Birmingham City , securing a decisive 3:0 victory. While the home win was somewhat predictable, they’ve shown more than able to keep up the pace from start to finish.

With most bookmakers online pricing their victory at odds of 5.50, no one believed Sheffield Wednesday could come out on top in their previous Championship match. However, they went ahead and did it – an early lead turned into a narrow, but well-deserved 1:2 away win at Barnsley.

With 9 goals in their previous 3 Championship matches, The Hornets’s attacking players have been seeing a lot of success and top bookmakers online are backing them to continue the trend.

The away team’s previous three away games left a lot to be desired when it comes to how they perform defensively. Over 5 conceded goals in just 3 matches is never a good look, even if you’re playing as visitors.

With several tied games behind them, the teams will be looking to switch things up to get the upper hand. Several matches between Watford and Sheffield Wednesday ended in a draw this season alone, so it’s clear they’ll need to get creative – especially the hosts.

This will no doubt be an exciting match because both squads will be able to come out in full force. No players have been sidelined due to injury or suspension, and this goes for both sides.

Our advice is to stay on the safe side and go for the Over 2.5 Goals market. It’s reliable, very probable, and available at odds of 2.15 if you use the Betsson sportsbook.
