Watford hosts Newcastle United in round 35 of the English Premier League. The match will be played on Saturday, July 11th at Vicarage Road (Watford)
Watford interrupted its 5-game winless streak in the last round, having beaten Norwich with a 2-1 score. Before that, the Hornets suffered three defeats in a row. Now they are four points ahead of the trio of outsiders. There are five more rounds to play, and taking into account the Hornets’ calendar, such a handicap might not be enough to save a place in the league. Watford will have to play against Manchester City, Arsenal, and West Ham, which is also fighting for the place in the sun.

As for the team that was in the basement of the standings before quarantine, Newcastle showed very good results after restarting the tournament. It earned eight points in five rounds, took the 13th line, and made a cozy 16-point handicap from the relegation zone. Four of these five matches ended with Over 2.5 goals scored.
Yes, Watford and Newcastle didn’t show scoring football in the last four head-to-head matches. But before that, Over 2.5 goals scored was recorded in five out of six meetings. Now we will probably see an abundance of goals scored. It makes no sense to Watford to sit back on heels; of course, it would not be bad to gain one point, but not now, when it’s a stone's throw to the relegation zone. Now the Hornets must take all three points from a not very motivated and strong opponent. So it’s necessary to score. Newcastle tasted blood, and it doesn’t mind scoring to the nets of its rivals. Therefore, we are likely to see an interesting and scoring match. Both teams have injured players. But the hosts have Dukur (four goals), Sarr (5 goals), and Deaney (6 goals). Newcastle can count on Almiron (four goals), Shelvey (six goals), and half a dozen players who scored two goals.
Prediction for the match: Over 2.5 goals scored
