History of the Watford v Sheffield Wednesday fixture

Watford prepare to entertain Sheffield Wednesday at Vicarage Road Stadium on Friday evening, looking to continue an impressive record. The Hornets are clearly on top, having won 11 and lost only 3 of the 18 games.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at Vicarage Road Stadium was less than a year ago, in March 2009, where the two teams cancelled each other out in an enthralling 2-2 draw in a Championship match.

Recent respective form guides

Watford have only collected 1 win and 3 draws from the last six home games played. While Hornets have scored 9, a worringly large 13 have been leaked at the other end.

Sheff. Wed.'s away form is none too clever either, accumulating just 1 victory and 1 draw from their last six played. While the The Owls have hit 5 goals, 10 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Watford's 18 points from 13 games sees them lie inside the top half of the table, in 12th position. Sheff. Wed. see themselves just below half way in the Coca-Cola Championship, showing a record of 16 points from their 13 games played so far,
