THE PREDICTION
Watford come into this off the back of a thrilling home encounter with Stoke, which saw Ismaila Sarr net in second half stoppage time to seal a 3-2 victory for the Hornets. In comparison, Coventry come into this following a last gasp 2-1 defeat away to Nottingham Forest, after giving away a penalty in the 97th minute. With a number of injuries to key players starting to hit Mark Robins’ squad, now does not look like a good time to visit Vicarage Road with Watford starting to welcome big name players back from injury such as Will Hughes and Troy Deeney, the latter an unused substitute against Stoke. With such strength in depth available to the Hornets, Watford will be confident of not only a victory here, but also a clean sheet to take into the upcoming international break.
