Conclusion
In the end, the team that deserved the win rightfully claimed the three points as the Hornets raced out the blocks to take a two goal lead into the break. While Newcastle made an improvement in the secon- half, it only proved that in order to win matches in this league, it is pivotal that you play a complete game of football.

The Hornets were high tempo in the first 45 and defensively resolute after the break. Quique Flores will be delighted with what his Watford side has achieved so far this season and especially in the last two weeks, while for Steve McClaren and the Magpies, it is clear for all to see that a lot of work needs to be done or else a repeat of last season’s relegation dogfight beckons – potentially ending in disaster this time around.
