Swansea City vs Watford Prediction and Betting Tips | November 5th 2024

The action continues in round 14 of the EFL Championship as Swansea City and Watford square off at the Swansea.com Stadium on Tuesday. The Hornets head into the midweek clash fresh off the back of an emphatic 6-2 victory over Sheffield Wednesday and will look to keep the juggernaut rolling.

Swansea City returned to winning ways on Saturday when they held on to secure a 2-1 victory over Oxford United at the Kassam Stadium. The Swans had failed to taste victory in their previous six outings, losing three and claiming three draws while conceding three goals and scoring just once in that time.

With 16 points from 13 matches, Swansea City are currently 12th in the Championship table, but could move level on points with seventh-placed Millwall with a win on Tuesday.

Elsewhere, Watford turned in a clinic at the attacking end of the pitch as they steamrolled Sheffield Wednesday 6-2 at the Hillsborough Stadium on Saturday.

This followed a 1-0 victory over Blackburn Rovers at Vicarage Road on October 26 which saw the Hornets’ two-game losing run come to an end.

Watford have picked up 22 points from 13 matches so far to sit fifth in the Championship table, seven points adrift of league leaders Sunderland.
