Claudio Ranieri warns Leicester City to be "careful" against Watford

Claudio Ranieri warns Leicester City against the dangers of facing a "strong" Watford side on Saturday.

Leicester City manager Claudio Ranieri has warned his side to be "careful" when they take on Watford at the King Power Stadium on Saturday.

Leicester's impressive early-season form has seen them rise to third in the Premier League table, but Watford have also started strongly as they sit 11th.

With that in mind, Ranieri has said that the Foxes must "beware" Watford's counter-attacking capabilities.

"Now arrives a very particular team because in their last six away matches, they were very strong – be careful, beware," Ranieri told the club's official website.

"They are like us. They are strong and they play very well on the counter attack and press a lot.

"I'm sure they will get better. It's a mirror – Leicester and Watford."

The last time these two sides met came two years ago, when a 90th-minute Danny Drinkwater goal rescued a 2-2 draw for Leicester.
