THE PREDICTION
Fourth-placed Swansea head to Vicarage Road knowing that they need to avoid defeat if they wish to guarantee themselves a playoff second leg at home with Bournemouth in fifth-place three points behind, but boasting a far superior goal difference. That won’t prove easy here however, against a Watford side who have already secured automatic promotion. Worryingly for Swansea, the Hornets have won their last eight home league matches and whilst the hosts may have one eye on the celebrations post-match, they will prove formidable opposition. A close contest should be on the cards between two very strong sides and goals may be at a premium. With that in mind, consider under 2.5 goals scored over the course of 90 minutes.
