Watford vs Middlesbrough prediction
Middlesbrough remain top of the Championship despite falling to just their second league defeat of the season, against Wrexham last time out. Expect to see a strong reaction from Kim Hellberg's side on Saturday, with Watford providing the ideal opposition.
However, they must be wary of the Hornets, who picked up a crucial win in midweek, edging out Lincoln City by a goal to nil. Watford having home advantage also adds an element of difficulty for Middlesbrough, and if they aren't on top of their game, Watford boast the personnel to hurt them.
The reality though, is that the visitors are a far superior side and over the course of 90 minutes, they should wind up far too strong for Watford.
