Sports Mole previews Tuesday's Championship encounter between bottom-placed Bristol City and promotion-chasing Watford at Ashton Gate.

Bristol City will be looking to record a second consecutive Championship win for only the second time this season on Tuesday when they host Watford at Ashton Gate.

New Robins boss Sean O'Driscoll picked up his first victory in charge of the league's bottom-placed side on Saturday as they saw off Ipswich Town 2-1.

Meanwhile, a fourth win in a row for Watford could see Gianfranco Zola's men move into the automatic promotion places.

Ryan Taylor will miss out for the hosts after he fractured his collarbone during the win over Ipswich, while Neil Kilkenny is a doubt with a twisted ankle.

Tommie Hoban is the only injury concern for the visitors.

Recent form:

Bristol: WLLLLW

Watford: WLLWWW

Possible lineups:

Bristol: Heaton; Fontaine, Carey, Cunningham, Moloney; Elliott, Kelly, Skuse, Anderson; Baldock, Stead

Watford: Almunia; Doyley, Pudil, Cassetti, Nosworthy; Chaloba, Ekstrand, Abdi, Battocchio; Deeney, Vydra

Sports Mole says: 1-2
