Watford striker Troy Deeney describes his side's victory at Leicester City in the Championship as a "massive win" in their bid for promotion.

Watford striker Troy Deeney has described his side's 2-0 victory at Leicester City in the Championship as a "massive win" in their bid for promotion.

Deeney netted the opening goal at the King Power Stadium on Friday to move the Hornets one point behind second-placed Hull City, who travel to Barnsley on Saturday.

"It's a massive win and hopefully we can kick on," Deeney told Sky Sports News. "The promotion situation is the same as it was - we're waiting for Hull to mess up. If they don't then fair play to them but if they do then it will go into the last day of the season."

Victory for Hull will see Steve Bruce's side clinch the final automatic promotion spot.
