The Match

Preview

Sports Mole previews Tuesday's Premier League clash between Watford and West Ham United, including predictions, team news and possible lineups.

We said: Watford 1-2 West Ham United

Although West Ham had their confidence hammered again on Boxing Day, their hosts have not kept a clean sheet all season and are not about to start now, given some inevitable rustiness after a fortnight in cold storage. Injuries have limited the Irons' effectiveness in recent weeks, but they should still have enough threat to edge a team which has such a soft underbelly - particularly if Antonio is closer to full fitness and back in form inside the box.
