Watford not solely focused on stopping Zaha - Gracia

Watford manager Javi Gracia says his side won't focus solely on stopping Crystal Palace winger Wilfried Zaha when they meet at Vicarage Road on Saturday.

The Ivorian has been integral in Palace moving away from the relegation zone this season.

"I think he is a good player in this season. Palace has changed shape and he has played wide on the left or as a striker," Gracia said.

"I think he is doing a very good season and we know he is a very good player but I am confident my players will do a good job.

"I prefer to prepare the games thinking about my team and after that focus on the other team and try to find a balance."
