Troy's Done Good
Deeney's scored in each of Watford's last 2 away games and the Seagulls' brittle defence won't fancy his physicality after conceding 6 in fixtures against West Ham and Bournemouth.
One of the season’s main puzzlers is how Brighton are still in a relegation battle, having somehow accrued fewer points than at this stage last term under Chris Hughton. This despite looking like a really accomplished side on the ball most weeks.
Out of possession they aren’t always so impressive, and after conceding three goals to both Bournemouth and West Ham recently, I would worry about the defence. Troy Deeney has found a kindred spirit in Nigel Pearson and can score at the Amex at best odds of 21/10 with PaddyPower.
Approaching a full decade at Watford, the 31-year-old has rediscovered his snarling best in recent weeks finding the net 5 times since 22nd December.
