ON THE GAME
Stephen Hughes said to the CT: "We have got confidence from being undefeated in the last few games. I know Watford will be desperate for points because they are at the other end of the table. It is a tricky place to go. They play a direct style and I'm sure they will be raining balls into the box but we go there with confidence because we are doing all right away from home at the moment."
