Stats for this game

Matchup Watford VS Southampton

Southampton edge a mixed league balance

Southampton beat Watford 1-0 at home on 7 February 2026 and won 3-2 there on 13 April 2024. Watford answered with a 2-1 home victory on 16 August 2026, giving each club a decisive result in the Championship meetings. The teams also drew 2-2 at Watford on 30 August 2025, so Southampton’s wins do not create a settled order. The league balance remains close across those scorelines overall.

FA Cup scores add a separate layer

The clubs drew 1-1 at Watford in the FA Cup on 28 January 2024, then Southampton won 3-0 at home in the replay on 6 February 2024. Those knockout outcomes add another layer, but they should not replace the Championship results when the matchup is assessed. A future league meeting can ask whether Watford add to their home reply or Southampton reinforce their positive league direction without relying on cup context.
