Wolverhampton Wanderers and Watford meet in the Championship, with the hosts sitting 7th on 18 points from 11 matches, while the visitors are bottom of the table in 20th with 11 points. The hosts need three points to move up and push for a play-off spot, while Watford need to get out of the danger zone quickly. Wolverhampton Wanderers have just won 2-1 at home in their latest match, and in their last five games they have never won by more than one goal. Their attack keeps producing, but their defence still shows gaps frequently. Watford, meanwhile, have just won 2-0 after losing several in a row, with their defence especially leaky, but they do score occasionally on the road from counter-attacking situations. If the hosts score first, the game should open up more because Watford will have to push forward and trade blows. The game could end with a scoreline that is not too far apart, but if the visitors sit deep and wait to counter, it will become a game where the hosts have to carve out chances themselves, which often ends narrowly.
