Match description
West Bromwich Albion holds a clear form advantage in recent weeks: over the last five matches they have averaged 1.8 points per game, scored 5 goals and conceded only 2, while Watford over the same period average 0.4 points per game, 2 goals scored and 7 conceded. At home West Brom averages 15.33 shots per match with 4.48 shots on target and scores 1.19 goals (xG 1.64), whereas Watford away average 12.19 shots with 3.52 on target and score 1.05 goals on average (xG 1.31). Defensively the hosts also perform better: West Brom concede 1.19 goals at home and have an xG against of 1.04, while Watford concede 1.43 goals away and register an xG against of 1.4, indicating greater vulnerability from the visitors. Additionally the hosts have 29% clean sheets at home versus just 10% clean sheets for Watford on the road and 33% home win rate compared to 19% away win rate for the visitors, which reinforces West Brom’s advantage. Based on this I estimate the probabilities at: Home win 60%, Draw 25%, Away win 15%.
