Watford custodian Costel Pantilimon believes that his side will have to be wary of the Leeds United threat as the Championship outfit will do everything they can to win the game.
The Hornets are set to host the Whites in an FA Cup fifth round encounter on Saturday with the motivation to reach the quarter-finals of the tournament being high for both clubs.
The former Manchester City man, who lined up in the goal for their fourth round match against Nottingham Forest, insists that it is important for him to enjoy every game and the FA Cup will certainly be special.
Speaking on the Leeds threat, the goalkeeper added that his side will have to stage a repeat of the performance against Nottingham Forest, which he believes will allow his team to go through to the next round.
“It’s important for me to enjoy every game. It’s an opportunity”, Pantilimon told his club's official website.

Having won a number of trophies with his former team Manchester City, the 29-year-old insists that it will be important to add the FA Cup to that list and he will do everything he can to win it for Watford.
