Sheff. Utd. face a trip to Watford at Vicarage Road Stadium on Saturday afternoon, having the edge over their hosts in previous meetings. The visitors have won 7 of the 15 previous games, with the hosts winning just 4.
The most recent encounter between these two sides was just last season, in March 2004, as the visitors ran out cosy 0 - 2 winners in a League Division One match.

Recent respective form guides
Watford's dreadful home form has resulted in just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While Hornets have scored 7, a worringly large 11 have been leaked at the other end.
Sheff. Utd.'s away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. Only 5 goals have been registered in this time, with 7 leaked at the wrong end.
Watford find themselves struggling down in 17th position in the league having picked up 48 points from their 43 matches. Sheff. Utd. lie just outside the playoff positions in the Coca-Cola Championship, picking up 66 from their 43 games so far.
