Leicester City are 'buzzing' ahead of the play-off, says Liam Moore

Leicester City are 'buzzing' ahead of the play-offs, defender Liam Moore has warned rivals Watford.

City take on the Hornets tonight in the first leg of their play-off semi-final at King Power Stadium before a sell-out crowd of 32,500.

Moore said that City go into the tie on a massive high after their dramatic win at Nottingham Forest, which clinched a play-off spot.

Moore, who has risen through the youth ranks at City and came on as a second-half substitute at the City Ground, described last week as the greatest moment of his fledgling career to date – but said he now dreams of reaching Wembley.

"I always believed," he said.

"People were asking me on Twitter if we could still do it and 100 per cent I still believed. I know what quality we have in this squad.

"Okay, we were looking for a snooker with Bolton's result, but I think we ultimately deserve to be in this position.

"It was the greatest moment of my career so far.

"I was only young when we last went to the play-offs. I remember watching it on television. But to be part of it this time and actually on the pitch was amazing.

"Definitely I want more. Saturday was amazing but what would it be like to play at Wembley, the biggest stadium in England? It would be amazing.

"We are all buzzing."

Moore believes City have learned from their two league defeats to Watford and are confident.

"We have played them twice and we learned a lot," he said.

"In the last game, I think we were a little unlucky. It was a world-class goal that won it.

"I thought we started well and if we can go into this game and start well we can take them on. We know more about them and could get the win.

"Watford may be down after conceding the goals they did at the weekend, but we are going in there on a high.

"There is pressure for both teams because we have got so far now.

"We believe in ourselves and will be very disappointed if we don't make it."
