Chelsea almost suffered a massive upset in their Champions League match on Wednesday, but they eventually managed to split the points against Roma. They will now remain at home for their next match, where they will play host to a really competitive side, Watford, on Saturday, October 21st. Watford have actually been quite solid so far in the Premier League, as they have lost just one of their 8 matches, but have had a quite easy schedule.
Watford (4-1-3) were really strong in their previous match, where they managed to defeat Arsenal by 1-2 at home. It took a lot of guts in order to do so, as they saw their opponents take the lead at the end of the first half. However, Watford did a great job to pull even at the 71st minute from the penalty spot, and eventually scored the winning goal at the stoppage time. They are are now sitting at the 4th spot of the league table with 15 points, having scored 13 goals against 13 conceded. They have been stunning so far on the road (3-0-1), but they haven’t faced any of the big teams there. Even so, they have only lost points in a 2-2 draw against West Brom, but have defeated Swansea, Southampton and Bournemouth.

On the other hand, Chelsea (4-3-1) are coming off a mouth-watering 3-3 draw at home against Roma on Wednesday, when the two teams met in the 3rd Match-day of the Champions League. Chelsea had actually taken a two goal lead, but they saw their opponents overturn the lead in their favor, before Chelsea securing a single point with a goal at the 75th minute. However, they suffered quite an unexpected loss in their previous Premier League match, as they fell by 1-2 on the road against Crystal Palace, a team that had lost all their matches prior to that, and have also failed to score a single goal. Chelsea are now sitting at the 5th spot of the Premier League with 13 points, two point behind their upcoming opponents.
