On the 21st of January, in this week 28 match, Watford and Rotherham United will play a match in Watford in a clash of these two extremely mismatched Championship teams. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cold day, with daytime temperatures of only 1 degrees, so hopefuly the match makes up for the weather. In their last match, Watford recorded a 2-0 shutout win against Blackpool. Toby Adeyemo scored the first goal for Watford in the 72nd minute, then Ismaila Sarr added another in the 87th minute on a penalty shot At the end of 90 a dissapointed Blackpool couldn’t manage to score, and Watford took the shutout win. Watford should be reasonably happy with their recent performance, earning 17 points in their last 10 matches, while rotherham United is fresh off their 4-0 shutout win against Blackburn Rovers. Hakeem Odofin struck first for Rotherham United in the 1st minute, then Oliver Rathbone added another in the 52nd minute In the end, Blackburn Rovers was frustrated by Rotherham United’s defence and couldn’t put any tallies on the board. Rotherham United ended the match with the shutout victory. Rotherham United looks to improve on their recent performance, having lost 6 of their last 10.
In their last match together, Rotherham United and Watford battled to a 1-1 draw. Richard Wood struck first for Rotherham United in the 2nd minute, then Vakoun Issouf Bayo tied it up for Watford in the 33rd minute on a feed from Ken Sema earning Watford a comeback draw.
Conor Washington has been the most effective weapon for Rotherham United lately. The attacker has netted three goals in his last 5 matches. Vakoun Issouf Bayo and Ismaila Sarr are the top scorers for Watford in the last five matches, but unfortunately they only have one goal. It’s hard to imagine having success with those stats.
