Manchester United vs Watford – Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips 26/02/2022, The Hosts May Experience Problems in Attacking

Manchester United: McTominay (?), Cavani (?).

Team Formation

Manchester United, although losing goals, does not lose. The team has been undefeated for nine consecutive games. Mancunians share 5-6th place with Wolverhampton. The lost lead is five goals behind Arsenal, which means that there are still chances for top 4. In the last round, the devils beat Leeds (4-2), while, once again, showing poor concentration. With the score 2-0 in their favor, Manchester United missed two goals in one minute.

Watford seems to have beaten Aston Villa away, but in the next match the Hornets lost (1:4) at their home arena to Crystal Palace. The team has finally taken root in the relegation zone, and it will be very difficult to get out of it, as competitors in the face of Burnley and Newcastle are regularly scoring goals. In the last ten games, Watford have earned only five goals. 

Outcome Bets

Naturally, the coefficient for the victory of the hosts is negligible. Yes, Manchester United do not lose, but they may well lose goals at home-arena-games even against Watford, especially since Hodgson will stand up for everyone, and the Devils play badly against teams with a low block.

Handicap Bets

Zero handicap on the guests is estimated. In addition, a good coefficient, taking into consideration the reliability of the Wolverhampton’s defense. The team misses very little, which allows them to claim points in any case, even if the game does not go well.

Total Bets

Under 2.5 goals for Manchester United have played in seven of the last ten games. “Both to score” was played in six matches. Missed the team from Manchester also in seven games.

Watford, six times out of ten, failed to break bookmaker’s top and/or mutual goals. Lost “hornets” in seven meetings in the period under consideration. Watford defeated Manchester United 4-1 in the first round. The Devils obviously want to recoup.

Preliminary review and match prediction for Manchester United vs Watford

Guests will come to defend very low and hope for a successful counterattack. For Manchester United, this is bad, because the devils do not know how to crack this level of protection even from teams of the Championship level. And here is the whole Watford with Roy Hodgson. Man United have broken an individual total of 1.5 goals only four times in ten games.
