Middlesbrough are clear favourites for this Championship encounter, backed by a three-match unbeaten run and a prolific attack that has netted sixteen goals in five games. Watford's injury crisis and poor form make an upset unlikely, though their home advantage and strong head-to-head record offer a note of caution.
