Betting Insights

  • Bristol City currently sit 12th in the Championship table, with 47 points from 33 matches, and are one place and one point worse off than Watford in ninth, 2.32 favourites for Friday’s game.
  • Watford are 2.94 to take the spoils and a draw is 3.35.

  • Still’s side have been all over the place this season, but the early signs under him have been positive.
