‘Going forward, They’re Great’ – Paul Merson gives his prediction for the Man City vs Watford clash

Manchester City take on Watford at Vicarage road on the last day of the Premier League season needing a win to guarantee a top-four place.

City cannot afford to slip up as a draw or defeat could see them drop into fifth-lace.

The Citizens have been in great form of late and have never actually lost against Watford in the Premier League.

City are unbeaten in their last seven league games, winning five, drawing five and scoring 18 goals in the process.

Arsenal legend and football pundit Paul Merson revealed that City’s attacking prowess could be key to unlocking Watford in his prediction column for Sky Sports.

Merson revealed that he does not expect City to have a slip-up against an out of form Watford who will be without their current manager next season.

Merson said: I expect Man City to win this one and going forward, they’re great. The Watford manager has been told he will be leaving at the end of the season and they have finished very poorly, but what would Hull, Middlesbrough and Sunderland give to be Watford now?

PAUL PREDICTS: 0-3

City will be without Turkish origin midfielder Ilkay Gundogan who is injured.

Watford meanwhile have Sebastian Prodl suspended while Christian Kabasele, Craig Cathcart and Younes Kaboul are all out injured.
