Watford prepare to entertain Rotherham United at Vicarage Road Stadium on Saturday afternoon, with high hopes of improving on their excellent record against the opposition, having chalked up an impressive 7 wins out of 10 previous matches.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Vicarage Road Stadium was just last season, in November 2003, the Hornets carving out a narrow 1-0 victory in a League Division One match.

Recent respective form guides
Watford losing only 1 of the last six, but drawing 4 of them. The goals for column just outweighs the goals against over this period, 10 to 8.
The away form of Rotherham U. is pretty dire, managing a paltry 2 draws from the last six matches. While the The Millers have hit 5 goals, 11 have hit the back of the wrong net.
Watford's 26 points from 18 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 10th position. Rotherham U. find themselves stuck right at the bottom of the division. Their 19 games have yielded only 7 points.

FootyMad's prediction ...
The current home form displayed by Watford is obviously none too clever, but, with the current standing of Rotherham U., I firmly believe this match can only produce a victory for the Hornets. Home Win
