Pep Guardiola preview 

“It’s incredible what he (Watford boss Javi Gracia) has done.

“It’s one of our toughest of the nine games left. Quality one against one.

“The manager is incredible, Javi Gracia, with what he has done, they achieve a lot of points.

“But it’s the last game before 21 days without Premier League and the international break.

“It’s a few games before the end of Premier League and it’s massive for us to take our points.”
