    Watford 2-1 Leicester

    Watford goalscorer Andre Gray speaking to Sky Sports: "The midweek game against Liverpool was a bit of a reality check to not get ahead of ourselves and sometimes you might need it. If you draw or lose by one goal against Liverpool you could come into this game thinking you are too good. They had a new manager so they were up for it but besides the goal we defended really well."

    Scott Parker only made 15 Premier League appearances for Chelsea after a big money move from Charlton, he'll hope for a bit of revenge today. His side give away a cheap free-kick here though.

  10. What a finishpublished at 13:57 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March 2019

    Watford 2-1 Leicester

    Former Premier League striker Efan Ekoku on BBC Radio 5 Live:

    What a finish. Self-inflicted wound from Leicester City, Wes Morgan missed a chance with a couple of minutes to go. Poor decision by Schmeichel and they have been punished. Leicester who were on top in the second half, Watford will feel a little bit lucky.

    'He's better than you! Javi Gracia, is better than you' is the chant aimed at Brendan Rodgers as he shakes the hands of the officials and then goes to applaud the away end.

    Looks like a defeat for Brendan Rodgers on debut then. But Leicester win a corner, Kasper Schmeichel is up!

    He nearly wins a header too but it's cleared!

  14. 'Terrible from Schmeichel'published at 13:52 Greenwich Mean Time 3 March 2019

    Watford 2-1 Leicester

    Former Premier League striker Efan Ekoku on BBC Radio 5 Live:

    It is a super goal, full credit to Troy Deeney, he spots Andre Gray tearing through the middle and just flicks the ball over to him. It is a terrible decision by Kasper Schmeichel to aim for a midfield player instead of just kicking it long from the goal kick

    Andre Gray

    REWRITE.

    Watford have won it! Kasper Schmeichel's clearance is rubbish, not for the first time today, Troy Deeney plays a lovely ball over the top to sub Andre Gray, who runs on and fires in left-footed. Fine finish.

    No doubt who is the stronger side in the last 10 minutes. That is Leicester City. Their ball retention is a lot better in this second half

    Watford 1-1 Leicester

    Leicester are much improved since their equaliser and Kelechi Iheanacho gets away with a handball before teeing up Ben Chilwell on the left - his shot is blocked easily though.

    Leicester have a late corner...

    Watford 1-1 Leicester

    Loudest cheer of the day from the Watford fans as Troy Deeney finally gets a free-kick! They love that.

    Leicester counter though and a better touch from Kelechi Iheanacho would have sent James Maddison clean through on goal...
