Manchester United Watford betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this challenge will be Manchester United to win. In addition to going through a moment of great confidence, the home club receives in this knockout of the FA Cup an unmotivated "enemy" due to the recent results. Note that Manchester United have won the last 9 games against Watford at its stadium. Thus, it is expected that Manchester United will put its favoritism in the field and end up winning the victory.

Preview
Manchester United and Watford face at Old Trafford, in a match for this stage of the FA Cup (3rd Round). The head‑to‑head history at this stadium, favours the home team, since in the last 5 head‑to‑heads they won 5. Accordingly, in the last head‑to‑head played at this stadium, for the Premier League, on 23‑02‑2020, Manchester United won by (3‑0). A. Martial (58' ), Bruno Fernandes (42' ) and M. Greenwood (75' ) scored the goals of the match for Manchester United. Both teams register significant differences between home and away results, so the home/away factor is worth atention.

Analysis Man Utd

The home team makes its debut in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of getting a positive result, using the home advantage in their favour. This is a team that, oddly enough, has had better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 10 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses in away matches; against 7 wins, 3 draws and 5 losses at their stadium. In their last match, for the League Cup, they got a home loss against Manchester City by (0‑2). In the last 10 home matches Manchester United has won 6, tied 1 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches. They have conceded the first goal in 7 of their 15 matches, but have been able to turn the score around in 4.

Manchester United comes to this clash unmotivated after a 0-2 home defeat to Manchester City, in a game counting for the League Cup. Note that the home team lost only 2 of the last 10 games played. The home team usually plays in a 4-3-3, favoring a more relaxed playing style and channeling its attack through the central aisle. Attacking midfielder Bruno Fernandes is Manchester United's top scorer in official matches, with 15 goals scored. Coach Ole Gunnar Solskjaer cannot count on Edinson Cavani for being suspended.

Confirmed Lineup: Dean Henderson, Alex Telles, Brandon Williams, Axel Tuanzebe, Eric Bailly, Juan Mata, Daniel James, Jesse Lingard, Donny van de Beek, Mason Greenwood, Scott McTominay.
Coach: E. ten Hag.

Analysis Watford

The team plays its first match in this edition of the FA Cup with the intention of getting a positive away result. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 2 wins, 6 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 10 goals scored and 18 conceded; against 10 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses at their stadium, with 24 goals scored and 17 conceded. In their last match, for the Championship, they got an away loss against Swansea City by (2‑1). In the last 10 away matches Watford has won 2, tied 4 and lost 4. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 4 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Watford comes to this clash unmotivated after a 2-1 defeat at Swansea, thus registering the second defeat in the last three games: the team's only goal was signed by Tom Cleverley. Unlike the "enemy" of this tie, the away club usually plays in a 4-4-2, where the two most advanced players are Andre Gray and Troy Deeney. The visiting club, when investing in the offensive process, usually does so through the right aisle, taking advantage of the depth offered by winger Ismaïla Sarr. Coach Xisco cannot count on Domingos Quina, Craig Cathcart, Tom Dele-Bashiru and Isaac Success, all injured, as well as James Garner, on loan from Manchester United.

Confirmed Lineup: Daniel Bachmann, Marc Navarro, Francisco Sierralta, Adam Masina, William Troost-Ekong, Nathaniel Chalobah, Will Hughes, Philip Zinckernagel, João Pedro, Ismaila Sarr, Andre Gray.
Coach: S. Bilić.
