Watford 10/11 to beat Fulham and over 1.5 goals in Tuesday’s Premier League contest

Competition: Premier League

Market: Watford win and over 1.5 goals

Odds: 10/11 @ Bet 365

With their sights firmly set on bringing Europa League football to Vicarage Road this season, Watford will host leading relegation contenders Fulham on Tuesday.

Starting with Tuesday’s hosts, while Watford might be coming off the back of a 2-1 loss away at Manchester United, the mood in Javi Garcia’s camp will be on a high. Booking their spot in the semi-final of this year’s FA Cup, the Hornets know that a victory in midweek will see them climb up to seventh in the table. A huge part of Watford’s stellar campaign this year has undoubtedly been their form on home soil. Yet to be beaten at Vicarage Road in 2019, they have now won their last three matches on the bounce picking up back to back 2-1 wins over Leicester and Crystal Palace.

As for the visitors, while Watford might be enjoying a very successful campaign, the same cannot be said for Fulham. Really struggling to adjust to life since making a return to the Premier League, Scott Parker’s side currently sit 15 points adrift of safety and already have one foot in the Championship. Losing their last eight matches on the bounce, a huge part of their problem this season has been their ongoing defensive issues. No team in any of England’s footballing tiers holds a worse defensive record than the Cottagers.
