Watford boss Gracia: Fulham relegation won't stop us

Watford are happy to brandished as the bad guys if they manage to seal Fulham's fate on Tuesday night.

A loss to the Hornets will see Scott Parker's side relegated to the Championship.

Watford boss Javi Gracia said: "I know the three points are very important for them, if they lose they are relegated.

"If they are relegated it's not only because they lose tomorrow, it's because this season they have different problems and now they are in this situation.

"I'm very sorry for them, but we will try to win to get the three points and I try to be only focused on our team in this case.

"It's football, we are professionals. I have faced this before when I was sacked, or when I lose an important game and I was relegated with my home town team.

"I know it's difficult, but I prefer to focus on my club, my team and try to do our best."
