It's a massive game for Tottenham! They suffered another cup exit at the weekend so they need to get back to winning ways, and fast! Mauricio Pochettino has said the focus is on top four so he cannot afford defeat here. Watford rested almost everybody against Newcastle. They made 11 changes so they will be raring to go at Wembley. This will be a very hard game for Spurs but I'm backing them to edge it.
Watford has not lost for 6 games, Tottenham has lost last 2 games and that's why the odd of Tottenham is at this price, in my opinion it's the good moment to place money on them, Tottenham injuries is not so important than some people think, in my opinion it's a value bet Tottenham at home at this price i'll take all the time especially against a team that has not had max 'without losing streak' of 4 since the last 3 seasons. Furthermore because they've won at home against Tottenham, it's a kind of revenge for Tottenham. Hope i see the good story for this one.
Tottenham Hotspur is playing very well at home stadium and in general as well. Watford lost 4 of their h2h matches played at Tottenham Hotspur stadium. So this is for sure three points match for the favourite team. Tottenham Hotspur are in third place with nine points behind the leader. Watford are in seventh place with three draws and one win in last four matches. At their stadium, the Spurs will be more successful.
The chances of Tottenham winning a trophy this season have diminished grreatly in the past few days. They have exited both the Carabao and FA Cup competitions in the space of four days and now return to the Premier League, nine points off top space. The absence of key players has hit Tottenham who still haven't signed anyone in this or the last transfer window. Three of their last four games have been lost and one more bad result in the Premier League will surely end any slim hopes they have of winning the title. Their impressive home form is slipping too with losses to Wolves and Manchester United in the last three games at Wembley. Watford are up to seventh in the Premier League though such is the dominance of those above them, that's 11 points behind sixth placed Manchester United. They are unbeaten in their last six league and cup games, though two have been against Newcastle, one against non-league Woking and none against any team higher than 12th in the Premier League. Two of their last three away league games have been won with victories over West Ham and Crystal Palace. It's a hard game to call and the tip here is for over 2.5 goals to be scored.
It’s nit been a great fortnight for Spurs and they badly need an injection of new players before the window closes, but it’s looking unlikely, they are without Kane for another month or two, Ali has also picked up an injury and with Son away on international duty, that’s pretty much all of their goal threats missing and it’s showed in recent games, going out of both cups and struggling in the league. They really need a pick me up and might just get it against a very inconsistent Watford side.
