BBC Pundit makes prediction for Chelsea V Watford match

  Chelsea take on Watford at Stamford Bridge on Saturday. Three points may be required to retain their spot in the top four of the Premier League standings. Watford make the trip to West London knowing that victory could put the club as many as four points above the relegation zone. Ahead of the game, BBC football expert Mark Lawrenson has made a prediction for the game. "I've heard some people lining Chelsea up for a go at the title next season but, defensively, I think they are well short of what is required to be contenders," he wrote. "They have got some excellent midfielders and forwards, but I am not sure that is going to enough to get them a top-four finish this time either. There is a lot of work to be done at the back and they are going to have more hiccups like the one they had when they lost to West Ham in midweek. I would still back them to beat Watford though, because the Hornets have lost all of their momentum." According to Lawrenson, the game will end with a victory for Chelsea with a 2-0 score.
