Watford face a trip to Bristol City at Ashton Gate Stadium on Tuesday evening, needing to turn around their fortunes at the ground. The Hornets will be hoping to improve upon a record which has seen them lose 21 and win only 7 of the 40 games.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2008, when they played out a goalless draw in a Championship match.
