    Watford v Bristol City

    A game of four, Watford looking to avoid a fourth straight league defeat and Bristol City their fourth win of the season.

    Watford’s last four home matches: WLWL
    Bristol City’s last four away: DLLW

    Make of this what you will but according to the BBC Watford have the worst accuracy from shots ratio of all the Championship clubs and unluckily Bristol City have the best goals from shots figure.

    As hosts for 44 meetings the Hornets have 18 wins and 13 draws; but, strangely, it is the Robins who have a better goal scoring record, 56 scored for their 13 wins, against Watford’s 67.

    The Golden Boys could welcome Sean Murray, Marco Cassetti and Fitz Hall back from injury and Troy Deeney from incarceration, while the Reds have lost Joe Edwards, on loan to Yeovil, and Cole Skuse and Greg Cunningham through injury. Mark Wilson will be looked at for a possible return for the Bristol side. One point in Watford’s favour is there are so many new faces the opposition’s homework book will be useless.

    And the result: Watford 2 Bristol City 1

    OK, I'm waiting for the barn door jokes!​

    Did you not shut the door?

    I do not see a win in this game for the Hornets. 0:1 again. Bristol will defend and get in the way and then get a simple goal.

    I disagree. We are playing ok without getting results and someone will take the backlash.

    I think i have predicted a 2-0 win, but it could be more. Someones going to get it, why not BC?

    The solution to our current problems is simple, then. If you keep your car filled up we won't need a win (ie we will be so far ahead of everyone else.)

    Geijo is still unfit with a groin injury so is not in contention for selection. I doubt Deeney will be in the first 11, maybe on the bench. I have no idea where Bottacchio had vanished to, he was at Derby but I have not seen him since.

    If you wish to eat or drink anything at the ground it is cash only due to technical problems.!

    A feel a big win for the Golden Boys today I am going 4-2, they will score but I just feel we will click today and finally get
    the performance and the result we deserve after playing good and losing for the last few games.

    Come on You Golden Boys!!!!

    I would like us to keep a clean sheet as we've only kept 2 this season, and one of those was against Wycombe, although I'd take a win by any score.

    #watfordfc v Bristol: Almunia (GK), Cassetti, Nosworthy, Neuton, Pudil; Chalobah, Abdi, Yeates; Murray, Forestieri, Vydra

    #watfordfc subs v Bristol City: Bond (GK), Hall, Doyley, Smith, Beleck, Iwelumo, Deeney

    Troy is playing with a tag on his left ankle. I wonder what impact that will have on his movement and tackling.

    <steam> Yeates again <steam> Wonder what GZ sees in him?

    A fairly attacking bench there - as much as we can call them 'attackers' ;) - and only Smith as an alternative midfielder.

    I really don't understand what happens - I switched over to the Bristol commentary & it was ok - back to Watford commentary and nothing - although it has just come on now thankfully.
