Next Watford Fixtures

When you’re betting on the team, it’s useful to know when the latest fixtures are about to take place. There could be a fixture just around the corner and that means a shorter time frame to place a bet, while it’s always useful to know the full list of games on the horizon. We will highlight the date of each game along with the time of kick-off, while you can cast your eye over the previous results and see what sort of form the football club are enjoying.

Watford F.C. are a team who aim to be part of the English Premier League although it’s often the case that they can be down the wrong end of the table or even getting relegated to The Championship. There are markets relating to whether the Hornets can stay in the league or whether they might go down. For those thinking that the team can punch above their weight, there’s an opportunity to back them to land a top four or a top six spot, while you can also speculate on whether they will land a top half or bottom half finish.

When the latest match has been played, you can find an updated league table to reflect their overall position in the standings. It might be that a victory has elevated the Hornets several places although alternatively a defeat could see them drop a few places. Many punters use the league table as a useful starting point when it comes to placing their bets and there’s a useful way of being able to compare home and away form for a better understanding.

The Hertfordshire club will always take their chances in the FA Cup and they will try to negotiate their way through the early rounds in January and go deep in the competition. There are always predictions and hundreds of football match markets available for games involving the Hornets in the FA Cup, while the action is often live streamed and that means an abundance of In-Play betting markets. You can also have a bet on the team to win the FA Cup and also bet on which round the side reach before being knocked out.

The Hornets will enter the League Cup at the third round stage and they are often priced short if they are drawn against lower-ranked opponents which could give punters cause to put them into accumulator bets. It can be exciting working out what sort of team the manager will field during the preliminary stages of the EFL Cup and that’s why it’s worth paying attention to the team news. Sometimes it’s worth looking at the fringe players in the squad for a First Goalscorer wager.
