Watford vs Southampton Prediction (16.08.2026)

Watford starts another season, without being sure what exactly to expect from the "Hornets." The first opponent is Southampton.

"The Saints" with a strong finish to the previous campaign

Under the guidance of Tonda Ekert, Southampton revived and reached the playoffs, where they qualified for the final, but due to a spying scandal, they were disqualified. This left a bitter taste in the mouths of everyone associated with the club, but it does not take away from the hope that a great second half of the season can be repeated at the start of this championship. Still, an away game in the first round is not always an easy and pleasant task, so I expect "the Saints" to have their difficulties in London.

Bet for 1X

I give a double chance in favor of the capital's "Hornets."
