Watford host Birmingham City in an EFL Championship clash at Vicarage Road on Saturday.The Hornets look like favorites to clinch the second automatic promotion spot.Watford have played really well since current head coach Xisco Munoz took over. That is visible in how many wins they have been able to eke out in recent games.They won 4-1 in their last game against Rotherham United. Rotherham were playing their first game in a couple of weeks after a COVID-19 outbreak at the club. They struggled to match Watford's intensity from the start of that game.“We play with passion. We play with ambition. We want our fans to feel 'this is my team, these are our warriors.' We will always give the best for this club.”@28xisco28 just gets it 💛 pic.twitter.com/WnhEc3EgV2— Watford Football Club 💙 (@WatfordFC) March 18, 2021With Swansea losing to Bournemouth in midweek, Watford managed to open up a three-point gap between themselves and the Swans.
