    There have been times in recent weeks when the perception has been that Leicester have dropped off a level, perhaps a consequence of their dominance since August.

    However, Leicester have now won six of their last eight matches in all competitions, losing to Coventry City when down to 10 men and conceding a late equalizer to draw 1-1 with promotion rivals Ipswich Town.

    At Stoke last weekend, the Foxes stormed to a 5-0 triumph, ruthlessly putting the Potters to the sword to reaffirm that they remain a class above their rivals this campaign.

    From Watford's perspective, they are currently enduring what could prove to be a costly run in their bid to make a late dart for the top six.

    Just one victory has been posted in seven outings, that success away at Queens Park Rangers, with defeats coming at home to Bristol City and Cardiff City.

    Team News
    Watford changes from the side that lost in the Cup Replay seem certain. Just how much fitness a week's work has brought to Emmanuel Dennis remains to be seen.

    Leicester will again be without Kelechi Iheanacho after Nigeria reached the final of the Africa Cup of Nations.

    Dennis available (won’t start), tomorrow too early for Ngakia and Kayembe. Bachmann undergone concussion protocols, all fine, has inner ear issue. Met as group to discuss current situation. Knows it’s important to start showing their real levels again. WO

    1. 2:15pm kick-off for the Rugby.
    2. Split screen TV from 3:00pm until the end of the Rugby.

    :)

    After some recent performances Saturday 3pm appointment with hive live has slipped down the priority list, especially as I am expecting a substantial loss.
    Having been unwell recently I need to go shopping for some seed potatoes and onion sets as my allotment society has run out. Something I would have put off if we had been playing well.
