Watford winger Ikechi Anya believes that West Ham are capable of finishing in the Champions League places this season.

The 27-year-old was speaking ahead of the Hammers' trip to Vicarage Road on Saturday

"They've been brilliant, their results, especially against the top four, have been incredible," Anya said.

"They've got a manager there who's got them organised and they've proved they are a great team.

"It's going to be difficult but we're ready to prove our abilities and I think we could get a good result."

When asked whether West Ham could gatecrash the top four, the Scotland international added: 'Why not? They need to be lucky, they need to keep their players fresh, hopefully from their point of view no injuries but I don't see any reason for this start not to go on - hopefully barring Saturday."
