Betting suggestion:

The most likely scenario for this match will be for Chelsea to win and the existence of several goals. The home team has a squad with several high quality options, especially at the offensive level, with several very fast and strong players in 1x1. On the other hand, Watford is a team that is going through a very negative phase of the season, however, they have an interesting offensive sector. That said, and taking into account these factors, betting in favor of the ''Chelsea Wins, and Over 2.5 Goals'' market in this match is a good option.
