Every time I think Watford are about to get sucked into the relegation fight, they come up with a big result like last week's win at Stoke, generally away from home.
West Ham also had an impressive win - yes they were at home but they were up against Chelsea and had to show great resolve in a game I thought they would lose.
The Hammers have claimed a few scalps on the road this season but I would argue that was as good as any of their previous results.
On the face of it, their away form makes them favourites at Vicarage Road but Watford do not look like a side that has just been promoted and they might surprise a few more people this weekend.
After beating the Blues, Hammers boss Slaven Bilic said he had not set up his team as if they were at home and I think the Hornets will do the same. Watford will not be easy to break down and will do what it takes to get a win.
Nah, Munich I think it will go something like this from Lawro
West Ham have been magnificent away from home all season and have pretty much been unstoppable away from Upton Park. Watford on the other hand have found goals hard to come by at home
Prediction: Watfotd 4 West Ham 0
I wasn't far off the mark....
I'm a darn sight better at predicting Lawro's comments than Lawro is at predicting football matches...

Watford got a great win last weekend and they are playing at home. West Ham have got 13 points out of a possible 15 on the road but they were lucky to get anything against Chelsea. I think Watford will end West Ham's run and win this one. After all, West Ham are not a good team and they are in a false position. Watford 3 - 1 West Ham
I wasn't that far off myself. Lawro is a plank. Even Paul the octopus is better at predicting football matches.

No hate, just admiration for a man determined to stick to his guns in the face of all evidence ;wink
That would be so unbelievably fantastic. ;ok

"West Ham have been doing well, Watford poorly, so it's a Hornets win for me."
Glad he made that clear.
What a joke he is.
Mark Lawrenson. Could be the start of a new game, although I think a lot of the words would get modded.
I can think of a word that comes out of his name - one which a former Sheff Utd manager would be mighty proud of... ;hmm
Football's. Number. One. Expert.
