Watford 1 Hull City 0: Late own-goal extends Tigers' rotten run

Watford have lost just one of their last seven Premier League matches following a 1-0 victory over Hull City.

A late Michael Dawson own-goal gifted Watford a 1-0 win over Hull City at Vicarage Road on Saturday and extended the visitors' losing streak to six Premier League games.

Hull had held out for more than 80 minutes with a resolute defensive display, before Dawson miscued a clearance into his own net following a Nordin Amrabat cross.

The Tigers had looked like winning a rare and valuable point after surviving an early Watford onslaught, which saw Younes Kaboul and Roberto Pereyra rattle the woodwork inside the opening 10 minutes.
