David Nugent hopes for Wembley chance

Leicester City striker David Nugent is hoping to score against Watford tomorrow to secure a place in the Championship playoff final for the Foxes.

David Nugent has said that he hopes to get a chance to play in the Championship playoff final at Wembley later this month.

Leicester City lead Watford 1-0 after the first leg of their semi-final tie, thanks to a late goal from the striker.

The 28-year-old told Sky Sports News: "They seem to be a team that I always score against, so I'm quite pleased that we've got Watford in the next game.

"I've scored there for Preston, I've scored there for Portsmouth and I've scored there for Leicester in the last few seasons so hopefully I can carry it on and that will be the case again on Sunday.

"It would be great if I could do it again and help get the club to Wembley. Ever since I said I want to get 20 for the season, I haven't scored. I'll never be saying that again and setting targets again."

The second leg takes place at Vicarage Road tomorrow.
