Stats for this game
Matchup Watford VS Burnley
Burnley hold the stronger direction
Burnley won 2-1 at Watford on 18 April 2025 after taking the same scoreline at home on 21 December 2024. Those results give Burnley a clear edge through narrow margins rather than overwhelming separation. An earlier Premier League 2-1 win at Watford on 30 April 2022 adds weight, while the competition change keeps the Championship meetings central in this pairing. The 1-1 and 0-0 results show how little separation has appeared in other league meetings, making the comparison more measured than two wins alone suggest.
Watford keep the balance close
Watford beat Burnley 1-0 at home on 12 August 2022, and the clubs drew 1-1 at Burnley on 14 February 2023. A 0-0 draw on 5 February 2022 supplies another counterpoint to Burnley’s broader direction. The durable question is whether Watford can add another win, or whether Burnley will claim a further narrow result in this Championship comparison.
