Middlesbrough v Watford
Sunday 1:30pm BST
With 25 goals in Watford’s 7 games this season, we see this one going Over 2.5 goals and we’re on at 2.10 with Bet365.
Boro come into this in 17th position, out of the drop zone on goal difference only. Watford on the other hand are travelling nicely, in the safety of mid-table after 2 wins against West Ham and Man United.
Our head-to-head stats go back quite a way, 17 years in fact for a sample of just 4 matches. They are practically useless of course but for the record, it’s P4, M’Boro 2, Watford 1, Draw 1.
In the 4-game sample, 15 goals were scored at an average of 3.75 which is very much on the high side. Interestingly 2 of the 4 games finished Under 2.5 goals.
