THE PREDICTION

Watford were held to a 0-0 draw by Millwall at the Den last time out to end a run of three straight Championship victories. Xisco Munoz’s men currently sit just outside the automatic promotion places and so cannot afford to drop points here against QPR. The Hoops suffered defeat at home to Derby last weekend and are perhaps suffering a little following the loss of flying winger Bright Osayi-Samuel following his move to Turkish Super Lig side Fenerbahce. Watford will be hoping to take advantage of this and the Hornets boast far superior strength in depth compared to QPR, which should benefit them hugely as this match goes on. Add that to home advantage being in their favour and it would be a surprise if Watford were not to go on and win this game.
