Premier League

Watford look decent value to tame impressive Wolves

Odds look too short for a home win

Wolves have been excellent in the opening eight games and look one of the best promoted teams the Premier League has seen but the markets may have overreacted by making them such strong favourites to beat Watford.

The gap between the clubs is two points and Watford have played three of the big six, while Wolves have faced only two.

Watford have a few injury and suspension issues but their back-up players have done well in EFL Cup games and they look overpriced to take at least a point.

Recommendation
Watford or draw double chance
