Norwich take on the visitors Watford in the round 26 match o English Championship. The match will be played on Monday, January 2nd at Carrow Road (Norwich).
Norwich completely lost their best conditions, they are in decline and how it looks like the beginning of the season. After the resumption of the championship, only one victory in four rounds was taken and defeats were recorded in matches where it seemed to impossible to lose. The bookmakers are extremely underestimating the next opponent. At least not to yield even such Watford is quite capable. For fourteen rounds, the team did not concede only in two confrontations. Stable and in every round, though not so much in general. It seems like a few more matches and the team will leave the top six. There is no back-up plan for management, unless to fire Dean Smith.

Watford received six unanswered goals in the last two matches and looked very weak. Alas, since mid-November, Watford have been struggling to get points. But the today’s visitors are still in the top five, the team looks good on the road as well. Recent failures can be considered by the board as a guide to action. And to lose for the third time in a row to a club of this level means to call into question the further struggle for the playoffs. And perhaps it would be logical to bet on the opponent's three points. But is Norwich itself something different in a positive way, if you look at the extreme results of the “yellow-greens”? Of course not. And the game of the first round ended with a minimal victory for Watford.
To be objective, but the recent failures of the visitors are forcing the bookmakers to make Norwich the favorite. But then you need to look at the results of the hosts. And here there is only one victory and not quite natural for eight rounds. The team loses points not only with same-level opponents, but also with clear underdogs and continues to search for a new head coach. It is difficult to determine a natural favorite in this confrontation, it simply does not exist. And the home field factor gives Norwich absolutely no advantage. And it seems that the hosts may not only fail to win, they may lose to the opponent. I assume that the visitors at least do not lose, taking into account the recent results of the hosts, where with great difficulty it is possible to simply score.
Prediction for the match: Watford not to lose (X2).
