Watford vs Manchester United DATE: Saturday 26th August 2006 KICK OFF: 3PM GMT What a start to the Premiership Season for the Red Devils, eh? We whipped Fulham at Home by 5 goals to 1, then we headed to The Valley and beat Charlton 3-0 to go top, not bad at all, and even better that Chelsea lost against Middlesbrough the same night we beat Charlton, remember folks, 3 point lead could be 6 point lead if we beat Watford this Saturday. Let me move on to Watford, they are the Play Off Winners, grabbed their first point against West Ham on Tuesday, and they will feel they have an advantage at their home ground, Vicarage Road. We have only been there once in the Premiership, in the 1999/2000 Season, when we won 3-2, when our erm Second Team beat them. This time round, we will be wanting to keep our winning run going, plus go 6 points clear of Chelsea, it's very possible indeed. I am looking forward to this, do us proud Manchester United. PREDICTION: Watford 0-3 Manchester United MATCHDAY ENCOUNTERS (LAST 2 PREMIERSHIP MEETINGS) 1999/2000 Season: Manchester United 4-1 Watford 1999/2000 Season: Watford 2-3 Manchester United MATCHDAY FACT: In the two meetings between Manchester United and Watford, Manchester United have scored 7 goals.
I don't think Watford have the ability to beat us. I'm going for a 2-0 victory. Watch out for Ashley Young
This was a huge win, a battling performance gave us the win in the end. We showed a lot of character, hopefully we win the spurs game so we can get Wayne And Scholesy back.
