It’s a tale of two cities as Premier League title contenders Liverpool and relegation candidates Watford go head-to-head this weekend. And on this note, Alley Sport brings you the Liverpool vs Watford Preview, Latest H2H record and Prediction from this gameweek 8 encounter in the 2021/22 season for the English first division.
Liverpool vs Watford Preview
Liverpool are quite arguably the Premier League title contenders despite having a quiet summer. Their tactics and system have stayed the same for years now but still, opposition teams struggle to deal with them. It’s an ode to Jurgen Klopp for the absolute machine that he has manufactured at Anfield. And they have steamrolled opponents this season too including impressive wins in the Champions League and domestic cup as well.
Liverpool are currently 2nd in the Premier League table after a disappointing 2-2 draw against Pep Guardiola’s side at Anfield. Nevertheless, they are still the only unbeaten team in the Premier League and would want that to stay that way when they visit Watford. The Hornets are in serious trouble as they look to avoid the drop this season after just winning promotion.
After an impressive opening day win against Aston Villa, they have plummeted down to where they wouldn’t want to be come the end of the season. Any result other than a loss against Liverpool would be a massive boost for them and could prove to be their Kickstarter. After all, they have beaten the Reds in recent times including a shock 3-0 win 2 years ago.

There haven’t been many match-ups between the two sides until very recently. They have only faced each other 34 times in their history, with most of these encounters coming in recent years. Out of these, the Hornets have managed just 6 wins and drawn four games.
Liverpool, on the other hand, have 24 wins. Watford have had a rancid recent run against the Reds but won their last encounter with them,a 3-0 league defeat which ended Liverpool’s invincible hopes in their iconic 2019/20 Premier League season.

Liverpool vs Watford Match Prediction
Liverpool are one of the favourites to win the league title and the safe money here would be on Jurgen Klopp’s men. Their main attackers are fit and their defence is restocked once again. We see no way or possibility where the home team scores and doesn’t concede, and go with a 3-0 win for the 2019 UEFA Champions League and 2019//20 Premier League winners.
