Watford skipper Troy Deeney has insisted there is no chance of Watford's form dropping off as they bid for their best ever season in the Premier League.

The Hornets stay in the top flight has been characterised by strong starts and poor finishes but there is little sign of this campaign following the same pattern.

We've got an understanding - naturally having two strikers who are used to playing that way.

Javi Gracia's side sit eighth in the Premier League table and have lost just two of their last 10 league games.

They beat Leicester at the weekend with Deeney getting a goal and an assist and he says his striking partnership with Andre Gray has been crucial to their success.

He told the club's official website: "Me and Dre always say we feel like we've got chances in us. We've got an understanding - naturally having two strikers who are used to playing that way."

While Deeney says the side are keen to progress and achieve more this season he does want to see the Hornets improve their record against the "big six".

Though they beat Tottenham at home this season they have generally struggled against the top sides and their only defeats so far this year in the league have been away to Spurs and Liverpool.

"Obviously the one [improvement] would be trying to get some points on the board against the big teams away from home," Deeney added. "I think that's a clear one to try and address - and we've got the 'easy' task of playing Manchester City away this week, so let's try and make it there!"

Watford are 16/1 to win the match with Pep Guardiola's side 1/7 and the draw 13/2.

The Hornets are also still in the FA Cup and follow Saturday's match with a home tie in the quarter-finals where they take on Crystal Palace.

Watford are 12/1 to win the FA Cup with Palace 16/1.
