Hornets set to sting the Seagulls
On Saturday afternoon, Watford and Brighton go head-to-head at Vicarage Road as the pair kick-off their Premier League campaigns.
Watford finished last season in poor form, winning just once in their last nine Premier League outings. The Hornets also failed to score in six of their last nine matches in the top-flight.
The Hornets form on home soil towards the end of last season was decent, as they suffered just one defeat in their last eight outings at Vicarage Road in the top-flight. The home side’s league games at Vicarage Road towards the end of last season were high scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in eight of their last 11 games.
Javi Gracia’s side has strengthened their squad with the signings of Ben Foster, Andrea Massina, Marc Navarro, Domingos Quina and Ken Sema. Winger Gerard Deulofeu also joined on a permanent basis.
Brighton secured their Premier League status relatively early last season. However, the Seagulls finished last season in poor form, winning just one of their last nine matches in the top-flight, losing five times in the process. The visitor’s games towards the end of last season were low scoring, with under 2.5 goals scored in six of their previous nine games.
Chris Hughton’s side are on a woeful run of form on their travels in the Premier League, failing to win any of their last 13 away games. To make matters worse, the visitors have suffered nine defeats in that period.
The Seagulls struggled defensively on their travels towards the end of last season, as they have conceded at least two goals in four of their last five games.
The Seagulls have moved to strengthen their squad, with the signings of the likes of Martin Montoya, Florian Andone, Yves Bissouma and Bernardo amongst others this summer.
Forebet predicts that Brighton’s poor away record will continue in this clash, with the home side recording a win in a low scoring encounter.
