As Sunderland and Watford are set to clash again, the memory of Sunderland's 2-1 win in their Championship face-off from 7 months ago still lingers. Sunderland enter this encounter after securing a victory over Middlesbrough in Championship on February 3, bringing their unbeaten streak to four.

Watford, in contrast to their opponent's recent successes, are on a troubling run, heading into this match following three back-to-back defeats to Norwich City, Coventry and Preston NE. Their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have been conceding goals for three consecutive matches now.

This Championship clash features attacking talents who have defined the campaigns of Sunderland and Watford. Sunderland’s top finisher Wilson Isidor and Patrick Roberts have played important roles in ensuring their attack, carefully orchestrated by Regis Le Bris, remains effective. Isidor has already scored ten goals in Championship this season, with Roberts contributing seven assists to top their creative tally in the league. Sunderland have also relied on Eliezer Mayenda, Jobe Bellingham and Trai Hume to energize their attack through key shots and passes.

Meanwhile, the attacking efforts of Watford, carefully orchestrated by Tom Cleverley, have been driven by Vakoun Issouf Bayo, the team’s primary goal threat, and Giorgi Chakvetadze, both of whom have delivered in crucial moments. Bayo has emerged as Watford’s leading scorer in Championship this season, netting ten goals, while Chakvetadze has been their leading creator in the competition with six assists. Watford have also relied on Edo Kayembe, Rocco Vata and Kwadwo Baah to energize their attack through key shots and passes.
