The hosts picked up three huge points in their quest for survival, as they secured a hard-earned 2-1 win over Southampton at St. Mary’s Stadium on Saturday. Before that, the Lions were on an eight-game winless run, losing seven, since starting the year with a 1-0 win at Bristol City.

Watford, meanwhile, were sent crashing back down to earth last time out, when they fell to a 2-1 defeat to Huddersfield Town at Vicarage Road. That followed a 1-0 victory over rock-bottom Rotherham United on February 17, which snapped their seven-game winless run across competitions come to an end.

With 44 points from 34 games, Watford are 11th in the league, level on points with Bristol City, Middlesbrough and Cardiff City.
