Watford to win
Matching up the 2nd in the table and the 21st makes it pretty easy to spot the favorite. Watford finds themselves on a nice win streak, and a victory against Birmingham will make it five in a row. Head to head statistics don't offer a great deal for this fixture, as excluding this campaign's match between the two, the teams have previously met each other in 2015, and still, Watford had the upper hand.
BTTS – No
The Hornets and Norwich are tied at the best defense in the Championship with only 26 goals conceded. Birmingham on the other hand has the weakest offense (28 goals in 37 games), with only Derby, Sheffield, and Wycombe having a worse stat. Watford has achieved 3 clean sheets in their last 5 games.
Under 10 Corners
Watford has had less than 10 corners in 3 out of its last 5 games. On the other hand, all of Birmingham’s last five have had less than or equal to 10 corners. Given the fact, we don't expect high scoring, there could be fewer chances for corner kicks too.

Watford vs Birmingham: Match preview and expert analysis
The Hornets will be looking to secure their direct promotion to the Premier League, and winning at home against the bottom of the table Birmingham will be a step towards that goal. Watford has a great recent form record winning 8 of their last 10 games, losing one, and drawing one. They are on their A-game and will look for a win vs Birmingham and no less.
On the other hand, recently appointed manager Lee Bowyer will be looking to keep the Blues from the relegation zone, and he already did a nice job, winning vs Reading. The match against Watford is only 4 days away from Bowyer’s appointment, so he will have a limited time to make an impact on the club. With Watford being on point, it will be an extremely challenging task for Birmingham.
