Watford vs Manchester United Predictions and Betting Tips: Premier League 22/12/19

Nigel Pearson has is the third man to take charge of Watford this season. He began his stint in charge with a 2-0 loss to league leaders, Liverpool, but put in an admirable deisplay. Watford wasted several golden opportunites but were resolute in defence for much of the game.

Manchester United are now six unbeaten in the league and are just four points off fourth placed Chelsea. Wins over Tottenham and Manchester City have boosted confidence within the squad. Even so, United have failed to beat Sheffield United, Aston Villa and Everton in that same period.

Marcus Rashford to Score – 10/11

Rashford has been in excellent goalscoring form in recent weeks. Seven goals in his last eight is his best run of form since Solskjaer first took charge. No side has conceded more goals than Watford this season.

 

Gerard Deulofeu to Score – 14/5

It’s not been a good season for either Watford or Deulofeu. The Spaniard has scored just twice this season with Watford yet to break double figures for goals in the league. Nevertheless, Deulofeu looked lively in Pearson’s first match in charge and could be dangerous against United with a bit of confidence restored.

 

Watford vs Manchester United Score Prediction: Draw 1-1 – 11/2

Watford showed enough in their 2-0 defeat to Liverpool to suggest that this side still has some fight left in them. There is quality in this squad, but they need to be more clinical in front of goal. Manchester United struggled against a side buoyed by a managerial change last week and it could be a similar fate on Sunday.
