Watford midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure regards their clash with Huddersfield Town as crucial in their survival push.

Watford are nine points clear of the relegation zone and Doucoure understands the importance of picking up points and sealing survival.

He said, “We are very disappointed today because we were ahead in the game and scored, but in two minutes we lost the game.

“We have to learn because today was a very important game we had to win, so we have to go to the next game and get the points.

“Every game is very important and Huddersfield is a massive game for us. We have five games left now, so we have to take points to be safe."
