Watford will host Portsmouth at Vicarage Road on Boxing Day in another round of the 2024-25 EFL Championship campaign. The home side have enjoyed a solid run of results in recent months and now sit eighth in the league table with 34 points from 21 matches as they look to finish the year in the playoff spots.
They suffered a 2-1 defeat to promotion chasers Burnley in their game at the weekend as they found themselves two goals down midway through the second-half before Kwadwo Baah netted a late consolation goal for the Hornets.
Portsmouth meanwhile have picked up important points in recent weeks and are now quite confident of avoiding the drop. They picked up an impressive 4-1 comeback win over Frank Lampard's Coventry City last time out with Callum Lang scoring an astonishing four times to help Pompey overturn an early deficit.
