Watford and West Bromwich Albion take on each other with the intention of ending their recent poor run of form in the EFL Championship. The Monday night fixture will be taking place at Vicarage Road. Despite being the home side, Watford will not be labelled as the favourite in this contest due to their disappointing streak of late. Having said that West Brom’s form is neither good, hence both sets of supporters will be concerned and simultaneously will also feel optimistic about their team’s chances in this game.
They both came close to ending that poor streak in their last game, however, late equalisers forced them to settle for a point instead. Watford were just moments away from upsetting leaders Burnley at their own home, however, a late equaliser broke their hearts. Likewise, West Brom also conceded late against Blackburn Rovers to settle for a 1-1 draw. A win could have been a welcome boost for these two sides, however, they have to start from scratch again to get the maximum points.

Despite their poor run, these two clubs are still very much in the race for a playoff finish. In the EFL Championship table, Watford are placed eight with 47 points from 32 games. On the other hand, West Bromwich Albion are sitting two places and points below them at 10th spot with 45 points, having played a game less. Their recent form, however, does not make for a good reading. Watford did not win any of their last five Championship games. Meanwhile, West Brom have won only one of their last four matches in the league.
These two clubs have played against each other on multiple occasions in various competitions over the years. However, if those contests are narrowed down to Championship then there are not many games that have happened between them. In fact, if the list is further reduced to EFL Championship games at Vicarage Road then there are only two matches that have happened between them. In 2007, it ended in a 3-0 victory for West Bromwich Albion, while the other in 2010 finished in a 1-1 draw.
