Watford is set to face Millwall at Vicarage Road this weekend in a match that holds significant implications for both teams’ aspirations in the Championship. Watford, currently in 10th place, aims to strengthen their position and improve their chances of securing a play-off spot, while Millwall hopes to keep their slim play-off hopes alive.
The Hornets are three points shy of West Bromwich Albion, who currently hold the last play-off position. Meanwhile, the Lions are four points behind Watford, and are in danger of slipping into mid-table mediocrity after managing only one win in their last five games. Watford enters the game with a slightly better momentum, remaining unbeaten in their last three games, even though their winning streak was halted by a goalless draw at Stoke City.
Watford also had more time to prepare for the match, while Millwall is coming off a recent 2-0 defeat to Bristol City, which followed their FA Cup defeat against Crystal Palace. The two teams previously met on the opening day of the Championship season, where Watford emerged victorious with a 3-2 win.
