Both teams still have two games left to play before ending the domestic campaign, but Watford find themselves safe in 13th place with 44 points so far.
On the other hand, Norwich are 19th in the league at 31 points. They have only played 36 games so far and have two left. Along with Norwich are Newcastle United and Aston Villa at the relegation zone but both teams have already played 37 games.
So for Norwich, if they beat Watford they can climb as high as 18th with a game left to play and still a chance to crawl up to 17th and assure another season at the top flight.
However, it has been extremely tough for Norwich as they have lost their last four league games.
Against Crystal Palace, Sunderland, Arsenal and Manchester United, Norwich failed to score in any of those battles and have dropped as much as 12 points.
They need to turn things around against Watford before battling Everton to close out the season.
Meanwhile, Watford have also struggled in the last stages of the season, winning only twice in their last 10 league games.
Their most recent result was a 2-0 loss to Liverpool at Anfield and after Norwich, Watford will battle Sunderland.
Looking at their head-to-head battle, Watford won 2-0 and another win will all but seal Norwich's fate.
It may be the same result when they battle at Carrow Road, with Watford proving too much against their rivals.
