Watford vs Ipswich Town Prediction: Tractor Boys have impressed throughout the season

Watford will welcome Ipswich Town at Vicarage Road in Game Week 21 of the English Championship. The Tractor Boys have impressed throughout the season and will need more of the same to get to the Premier League. Who will come out on top after 90 minutes?

Watford, who had a disappointing 10th-place finish last season under multiple managers, have improved their performance in the Championship. They have lost only one of their last 10 matches, including a challenging 1-1 draw against Southampton, who are chasing a place in the Premier League.

The game seemed to be heading towards a defeat for Watford after Che Adams scored the opening goal for Southampton. However, in the 96th minute, Rhys Healey's goal rescued a point for Watford. Despite the departure of key players Ismaila Sarr and Joao Pedro in the summer, Watford still has a talented squad.

Under the guidance of former Barnsley and West Bromwich Albion coach Valerien Ismael, Watford has taken on a more stylish approach. The team has displayed a high level of quality and continues to perform well. As of now, Watford sits only two points behind the sixth-placed Sunderland. They have a chance to secure a playoff position and potentially make their way back to the Premier League.

Watford has been on an unbeaten streak at their home ground, Vicarage Road, in their last five matches. They have scored an impressive total of 12 goals during this period. The leading goal scorer, Mileta Rajovic, has been in excellent form, finding the back of the net four times in the past five matches, including a remarkable double in the 5-0 victory over Rotherham United.

In conclusion, Watford's recent performances have been promising, and they have a genuine chance of earning promotion back to the Premier League. With their strong home record and talented squad, they are well-positioned for success in the remaining matches of the season.

Hamer; Andrews, Porteous, Hoedt, Lewis; Kayembe, Sierralta, Asprilla, Kone, Sema; Healey

The Ipswich promotion push remains strong as they secured their third consecutive win in the Championship against Middlesbrough. The team sacrificed possession but secured a 2-0 victory with goals from Conor Chaplin and Omari Hutchinson. Ipswich's impressive goal-scoring record continues, with 43 goals in 20 matches. They are currently in second place, comfortably positioned for automatic promotion. Chaplin's goal takes his tally to nine for the season, outscoring his teammates.

Watford vs Ipswich Town Expert Tips

Ipswich managed to keep a clean sheet for the first time in nine games during their previous match, but it is unlikely that they will be able to achieve consecutive shutouts on Tuesday night. Another strong team from the division will be arriving at Vicarage Road midweek, and we believe that Watford will struggle to halt Ipswich's impressive performance. We expect both teams to score.
