WatfordLLWLL3LincolnLLDWL4Watford vs Lincoln: recent form
Watford’s latest league outing ended in a 3–2 defeat at Norwich on 31 October. They scored twice but came away without a point, following a 1–0 loss at Wolves. Those successive away defeats followed a 2–0 home win over Charlton on 17 October.
That Charlton result is Watford’s only victory across their last five league matches. They took three points from that sequence, scoring five goals and conceding 13. Returning to Vicarage Road offers a different setting from the two most recent fixtures, although the home win over Charlton sits alongside a 4–0 home defeat by Burnley earlier in the same five-match run.
Lincoln also lost on 31 October, beaten 3–1 at home by Birmingham. Their previous two league games brought a 4–1 victory against Burnley and a 2–2 draw at Millwall. The visitors therefore have four points from their last five league matches, with one win, one draw and three defeats.
Lincoln scored seven and conceded 15 in those five games. Both clubs have had a mixture of scoring returns and difficult defensive results: Lincoln’s win over Burnley was followed by the Birmingham defeat, while Watford’s clean sheet against Charlton was followed by two away losses.
The pre-match table gives Lincoln a four-point advantage after both teams played 13 league matches. That is a useful measure of their season so far, while the recent-form comparison below covers only the latest five completed league fixtures.

Fan Banter Prediction
Editorial 90-minute pick: draw. Neither side brings a sustained winning run into this fixture. Lincoln have a small edge in recent points and the league table, while Watford’s latest home league match ended in victory. A draw is our judgement from that balance, rather than a claim of certainty.
