BURNLEY vs WATFORD STREAM LIVE
The lone Premier League fixture of the weekend could hardly carry any additional weight, as Burnley (12 points) bring up the rear with Watford (14 points) just above them in 19th.
Form and recent results are certainly the issue for Watford, who began the season with seven points (half their season total, to this point) from their first six games (2W-1D-3L). That means, of course, just seven points from their next 14 games (2W-1D-11L). That’s the recipe for having had three different “permanent” managers (Xisco, Claudio Ranieri and Roy Hodgson) in 115 days.
As for Burnley, the results have been abysmal all season. With just one win from their first 18 games, the gap between 20th and 17th and currently four points, though the Clarets have as many as four games in hand on the sides directly ahead of them. Of course, there’s been very little to suggest that those games in hand will ever turn into points in the bag.
