Verdict

BT4Y analyst view

BT4Y analyst view: Over that scoring level is the preferred angle because charlton’s consistent away scoring and Watford’s home scoring in six of seven matches suggest a match likely to produce over 2.5 goals despite Watford’s low overall scoring record. The Over 2.5 trend is 80% for Watford and 40% for Charlton, so the goals angle is not just a price call. The 4-0 home defeat to Burnley was alarming enough, but Tuesday's 5-1 humiliation at Cardiff exposed further problems with Watford's defensive organisation and resilience.
