Take on the Professor: Will Watford fan be buzzing against Palace?

Published:

Before we get down to business and take a look at this week’s Super Sunday clash between Watford and Crystal Palace let’s get one thing out of the way first.

The Professor took our breath away last weekend, correctly predicting seven out of eight outcomes in a complete rout of Southampton’s finest.

And now he has Hornets fan and renowned broadcaster (so he tells us) @RookeryMike firmly in his sights.

Good luck to you pal. You may need it.

That aforementioned hammering has put the bearded calculator on top of the standings…

Impressive stuff.

As ever, we’ve given our Mike a £25 FREE BET to use as he wishes. Looks like he’s not overly confident about Watford’s chances.

The format is simple.

For each correct pick, the entrant will be awarded the odds paid out on that selection.

For example, a correct 20/1 selection will reward 20 points. There will be no penalty for an incorrect selection.

Perhaps we shouldn’t question The Prof on his methods given his recent form but here’s his methodology anyway:

– Crystal Palace have only lost one of their last 10 league visits to Vicarage Road, winning five of them.

– No team has scored more than one goal against Watford at Vicarage Road since 21 February.

– Watford haven’t gone in behind at half-time in the league since February – a run of 18 games.

–  None of the last seven competitive games at Vicarage Road have featured more than two goals.
