Newly-promoted club Watford FC (0-1-3, 3 points) will try to score their first win in the Premier League versus undefeated squad Swansea City AFC (2-0-2, 8 points) at the Vicarage Road on Saturday, September 12 as the new season continues.
Quique Sánchez Flores' men are out for a tough task in this game against the Swans, who had been playing well as of late coming in with a momentum-building 2-1 victory over Manchester United on August 30.
The Hornets suffered a 0-2 defeat in the hands of current league leader Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium on August 29 as the Citizen's defense, anchored on goalkeeper Joe Hart and team captain Vincent Kompany, did not allow them to find the net.
Watford actually forced it into a goalless for the first 45 minutes, but Raheem Sterling's excellent second half dropped them, as reported by NBC Sports' Pro Soccer Talk.
Swansea's forward tandem of André Ayew and Bafétimbi Gomis each found the net after the hour mark of the game to lead them past the Red Devils at the Liberty Stadium after United's Juan Mata scored at the 48th minute, as per Bleacher Report.
It was a huge win for Garry Monk's men and they will try to bring the momentum on the road against the primary league's newcomers.
The predicted result is a 3-0 rout for Swansea City. The Swans are firing in all cylinders as of late and Watford will have to wait some more to have a shot at their first win, perhaps against Newcastle United on their next game.
Watford starting lineup (4-2-4 formation): Gomes; Cathcart, Holebas, Nyom, Prödl; Deeney, Ighalo; Behrami, Capoue, Abdi, Jurado
Swansea starting lineup (4-2-3-1 formation): Fabianski; Naughton, Fernández, Williams, Taylor; Routledge, Sigurdsson; Cork, Shelvey, Ayew; Gomis
