Newcastle United vs Watford: Lee Ryder's Premier League preview

Let's be honest, Newcastle United should be looking for their second win of the season against the Hornets after the reverse fixture at Vicarage Road earlier this season.

That day United wasted a host of clear-cut chances and then let Watford back into the the game.

To put the lid on a frustrating day for then boss Steve Bruce, Jacob Murphy missed a clear one on one which would have secured three points in front of the away end.

Newcastle can't afford any type of repeat on Saturday and must start being ruthless in front of goal.

Lee Ryder's prediction

I think Newcastle will finally get that elusive win after a few unlucky attempts in recent weeks.

Hopefully, the luck that has deserted them in front of goals can change and in all truth if the Magpies can't beat a Watford side that have lost SEVEN games on the spin, what hope lies ahead?

It's now or never.

Newcastle know exactly what they need to do, they just need to practice what they preach in games.

It doesn't have to be a masterclass they just need to nudge their way to a big win.
