Reading vs Watford: Top Free Betting Tips

Reading returns home to host Watford in the next fixture in EFL Championship on Saturday, 4 February. Both teams have followed a winless pattern in the recent outing and conceded the defeat in the last game.

Match Result Prediction: Reading to Win

Reading has registered only one victory in the last six outings and lost the previous two in a row. However, the team are undefeated in the last four home duels and won three of them. On the other hand, the Hornets have struggled in the recent visits and lost the last three of the last four away attempts. The Royals have also won the previous two home H2Hs against the Golden Boys. Therefore, Reading will be the favourite to take three points in this game.

Both Teams to Score Prediction: No

The Royals kept consecutive clean sheets in the recent home victories against Watford. The hosts have also claimed two clean sheets in the last four attempts at home. On the contrary, Watford has been effortless offensively and failed to find the target in three of the previous four visits. In opposition, Reading has not missed the target in any of the previous six home attempts. So we see only the hosts being able to score in this game.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-0 to Reading

Reading has scored two goals per game in each of the last three games at home. They will also be confident over the poor defence of the visitors that allowed eight goals in the previous four away outings. The Royals also defeated Watford in FA Cup in January with a 2-0 scoreline at home. Following the current numbers, we expect the same pattern in this game.
