Watford host Vicarage Road on Friday and will look to bounce back from defeat at Reading while as solidly as possible rooted in the right end of the Championship. They have currently collected 22 points from 14 matches under the management of Tom Cleverley for their maiden complete campaign. Despite not winning more than two games in their last five fixtures, the team did well at home by amassing 16 points from six matches. The away win at Sheffield Wednesday is a good boost, but the defeat at Swansea City is something one would expect them to do better than. Watford will thus play to overcome their sixth home win this season, as they lie just above seventh place.
Predicted Watford Lineup
Bachmann; Ebosele, Pollock, Porteous, Larouci; Ince, Dwomoh, Kayembe; Sema, Bayo, Chakvetadze
Oxford United Form
Their supporters must feel that their side will seal consecutive league wins when they play their next opponent this coming Friday. Oxford United, who were promoted from League One last season, have found it difficult away where only two points from six away games have been made out of the total 17 accumulated points in 14 games played so far.
Oxford United finally put aside a series of losses on Tuesday by overwhelming Hull City with a goal from Hidde ter Avest. That was good for them as it boosted their mid-table standing in the Championship. They will look to win again as they play other teams in the league.
Oxford United Probable Starting Lineup
Cumming; Ter Avest, Long, Moore, Brown; Vaulks, El Mizouni; Goodrham, Rodrigues, Ebiowei; Harris
