Swansea stunned Sheffield United 1-0 at home last weekend
Luca Kjerrumgaard scored a brace in Watford's 2-1 win over QPR
Recommended bet: Draw
Swansea and Watford have made mixed starts to the season but both will be in confident mood when they meet at the Swansea.com Stadium on Saturday after wins last time out.
The Swans, beaten 1-0 at Middlesbrough on the opening day, bounced back by overcoming Sheffield United by the same scoreline. Watford, meanwhile, beat QPR 2-1 at the weekend, a week after losing 1-0 at Charlton.

Team news
Swansea are still without Ricardo Santos and it is hard to see coach Alan Sheehan making too many changes from the side which beat Sheffield United 1-0 last weekend.
Watford star Imran Louza is missing for the Hornets after being sent off in the 2-1 home win over QPR.
Head coach Paolo Pezzolano switched from a 4-3-3 to a 3-5-2 set-up against the Hoops, but he may tweak it again if he wants to reintroduce talismanic frontman Kwadwo Baah alongside both Luca Kjerrumgaard and Nestory Irankunda.

Prediction
Swansea's problem scoring goals and the absence of Watford's driving force of a midfielder, Louza, conspires to suggest this showdown at the end of the M4 could well be tight.
And if it is tight with few goals, then the draw becomes a big runner.
Certainly Swansea had no problem carving out chances in their 1-0 win over Sheffield United — they had 13 attempts, 10 more than at Middlesbrough a week earlier.
But Liam Cullen is not a natural No.9 and Sheehan's men look like a team who will never score bundles of goals.
And they are up against a wily operator in Watford boss Pezzolano, a man not afraid to make tactical changes to suit his opponent, and the Uruguayan will be acutely aware of the Jack Army's strengths and weaknesses.
Watford have a unique threat in 6ft 6in striker Kjerrumgaard, who is going to be a handful in this division.
But with Swansea dictating tempo and possession, how many chances will the big Dane get?
Both games between the sides were tight last season and no surprise that under 2.5 goals is a short price. Over 90 minutes, though, the draw definitely looks the value.
