Swansea have won three of their last five; Watford have lost three of their last five. The momentum is with the hosts going into this Championship tie.
Watford are creating better chances than their goal return suggests (chance quality of 1.1 against 0.8 actual goals). They look due a few more.
xG explained: Expected Goals measures chance quality. 1.5 xG = a side typically converts those chances into 1.5 goals. Outscoring xG = running hot, possible regression risk.
Swansea create chances worth 1.4 a game (and give up chances worth 1.5), leaving them -0.1 a game on the balance. Watford create 1.1 (giving up 1.7) for a balance of -0.6. The underlying numbers clearly favour Swansea. They're creating better chances AND giving up fewer good ones. Watford are creating chances worth 1.1 a game but only finishing 0.8. the underlying performance is better than the results show.
Swansea average 1.6 goals per game and Watford manage 0.8. Combined that's just 2.4. We make it only 8% for three or more, so the lean is towards a lower-scoring game. Both teams scoring is unlikely here (29%).
Both teams scoring is the pattern. It happens in 61% of Swansea's home games and 65% of Watford's away matches.
