THE PREDICTION

Both these sides were on the end of 1-2 defeats at home in their most recent Championship fixtures. Coventry were beaten by Nottingham Forest, whilst Watford suffered a surprise loss to QPR. Both will be desperate to bounce back, but the visitors have benefitted from an extra day of rest compared to their opponents leading into this match. When you also take into account the strength in depth of Watford and the imposing nature of their frontline, the visitors draw no bet appears the smart play here.
