West Ham United clash with Watford this weekend in a clash both will be desperate to win.

West Ham United’s players recently enjoyed some warm weather training in Dubai, but they are now back in colder climes as they prepare for the weekend clash against Watford.

The Hammers have turned their campaign round in impressive fashion over the last few months, moving into the top half of the table and putting their relegation worries well and truly behind them.

That said, they will not be resting on their laurels and will want to work hard between now and May to finish as high up the table as they can.

Andy Carroll was not pictured despite his manager hinting that he would try to start running after a minor injury setback, but the majority of West Ham’s senior side were present on Thursday morning.

A win for West Ham will take them ever closer to the top eight and while the top six are having a competition all of their own there could yet be European competition to fight for depending how the cup finals go later this season.
