Odion Ighalo feels Watford have the chance to beat Tottenham Hotspurs in today’s EPL clash at Vicarage Road.

“It’s going to be a difficult game because Spurs are a good team and they have quality. They have been winning games too so it’s going to be difficult, but in football anything can happen,” Ighalo said.

There’s no let up in the busy Christmas schedule, and Ighalo says it’s just part and parcel of plying your trade in England.

“This is England, you have to be ready for everything,” he said.

“ I’ll be ready to go again on Monday (today).

“Our supporters are always behind us at home, and with the way we are playing, if we push to the end we will have a chance to win the game.”

He felt the Hornets were good value for their Boxing Day point at Stamford Bridge, even if there was a slight hint of regret at having not seen the game out from a winning position.

The in-form striker scored for the fifth game running, adding to Troy Deeney’s penalty to hand Watford a 2-1 lead, but Diego Costa’s second of the afternoon hauled Chelsea level.

“It was a difficult game but I am happy we got a point out of here because coming to Stamford Bridge and taking a point is very good,” said Ighalo, speaking to  Hornets PlayerHD.

“The team really worked hard from the start to the finish and there’s a lot of confidence building in the team, so we want to keep going.

“We could have gone away with the three points, but sometimes when you make mistakes you have to pay for it. We allowed Diego Costa to run behind the defence and score, but this is football and we want to keep going.

“The team really worked hard, from Gomes to the midfield and to the top with me and Troy. We really gave our best and we pushed to the last minute, so it’s a deserved point for us.”
