Watford to Win
Watford strengthened their promotion push with a 2-0 win at Huddersfield in their last assignments and the Hornets could be worth backing to post a follow-up victory over Millwall on Boxing Day. Millwall have the Championship’s second-worst record on the road this term and their habit of producing wretched away performances means they are worth opposing in the match result markets when they visit Vicarage Road.
Both Teams to Score – No
Watford kept their second clean sheet in as many games since the campaign’s resumption when they shut out Huddersfield last week and in total, the Hornets have conceded just two goals in their last eight Championship fixtures. Millwall meanwhile, have failed to notch in three of their last four games on the road and they could struggle to impact the scoresheet again here. With that in mind, a stake on both teams not to score is favoured at the prices on offer.
