Watford vs Arsenal 06.03.2022

Sunday EPL game will see the relegation-threatened Watford battle it out with a top-four hopeful Arsenal at the Turf Moor Stadium. Watford has only won one game in the recent five matches and will go into this encounter with an away draw against Manchester United. As things stand Watford have to keep collecting points if they have to survive relegation.

On the other hand, Arsenal’s hopes of playing the European Champions League next season are still much alive, and with its current form, it’s clear they are heading for the top 4. Arsenal comes into this game on the back of 3 consecutive wins in their last five games and will go into this match with a home win against Wolves, which makes this encounter interesting as both sides have a reason to fight to the last minute.

We anticipate an entertaining and defensive game but we fancy Arsenal to score the first goal in this match.
