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.

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.
