There's a busy midweek of European Qualifiers ahead but Watford and Sheffield United get the week kicked-off in front of the cameras tonight at Vicarage Road.
Rob Edwards became Watford's 16th manager (not including two caretaker spells by Hayden Mullins) in 10 years. A poisoned chalice if ever there was one. And the former Forest Green gaffer's job will simply be to get them back to the Premier League as quickly as he can.
But this league is notoriously difficult and full of clubs who believe they belong in the top flight, such as tonight's opponents Sheffield United who missed out on dining at the top table following a painful play-off defeat to Nottingham Forest.
The Blades go into the season with largely the same squad but the Hornets have seen no fewer than 20 players exit in the Summer so it's difficult to draw too many parallels with last season's form.
Scoring goals was a bit of an issue for Watford who've failed to win at home since November, and Celtic fans looking south of the border would've raised an eyebrow at misfit striker Vakoun Issouf Bayo being signed for around £5m as the answer to their goalscoring problems. So this could be a low-scoring affair. Under 2.5 goals is favoured at 8/11 while No to BTTS is 5/6 and a goalless first half pays 13/8.
To further add weight to the low-scoring angle, only one of 10 Championship matches at the weekend went Over 2.5 Goals, Eight teams failed to score at all, BTTS landed in just four of the ten and only two of twenty teams in action so far scored more than once.
Well done to The Caddy once again. No big winner this weekend but some very tidy e/w returns with 40/1 David Law and 22/1 Adrian Otaegui both tying 3rd and yet another matchbet Nap winner thanks to David Law beat Callum Shinkwin in their matchbet head-to-head.

Congratulation Sarina Wiegman & England on a fantastic tournament. Regardless the winner, Women’s football won today.
I don’t care I’m till Elvis comments lol
Fairplay Elvis you Don’t post any silly bets 👌
Big difference between the England men and women is in their heads.
The men took the lead in their final and after became paralysed with fear of failure as a not great Italian team turned the screw instead of backing themselves to score a 2nd goal
The women after the disappointment of conceding the equaliser dusted themselves down and then backed themselves to score again and were rewarded with the win.
Phil Neville didn’t get this team to believe they could win tournaments but wiegman has an aura of confident leadership that the women believed In.
Would southgate’s uninspiring leadership qualities have got the same tune out of these women that wiegman got ?
Doubt it
Wiegman for the England men’s team I say 😂

Well done caddy spot on 👏 ,I put it up aswell just in case some people didn’t see your golf tips lol.
🔥🔥C.Young🔥🔥 is going to win a tournament very soon.He has a few Top 3 finishes this year! Back him early in the week for bigger odds🍀
Yes I don’t think there will be much goal mouth action here.
Probably 1 nil result either way.
I wouldn’t be brave enough to back no goals for the first half though.
Best of luck anyway👍

Afternoon gents,
Been away with the family for a couple of days but last bets I put up were no good as was the weather in sunny Saltburn!
Big well done to the English ladies – brilliant result for the game ⚽️
Back on the hunt for goals and can’t pass up this one hailing from the Icelandic Urvalsdeild…
BREIDABLIK VS. IA AKRANES (8.15pm)
You have to go back 15 months to find a domestic home defeat for the hosts – losses in Europe to Copenhagen and Aberdeen being their only defeats during that spell.
Conversely, IA are in pretty poor form with no wins since they beat lowly Sindri back in May – given that Briedablik have put 3-5-3-2-3-5-5-7 team goals past them in their consecutive 8 games across the last 21 months, I think we’ll see a few!
Here’s the kicker that may bring some extra value into play for a longshot though – IA have scored against Breidablik in every single one of their last 10 meetings…bit of risk based on team performances but that’s some consistency particarly against the top Icelandic sides:
BREIDABLIK OVER 2.5 TEAM GOALS
(8/11, bet365) NAP ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
BREIDABLIK OVER 3.5 TEAM GOALS
(7/4, bet365) NB ⭐️⭐️⭐️
BOTH TEAMS TO SCORE BOTH HALVES

Best of luck with all bets!
