Nigel Pearson says that Leicester City's players are not worried by their lack of form as they battle for the Championship playoffs with two games remaining.

Leicester City boss Nigel Pearson believes that his squad is coping well with the pressure of trying to reach the playoffs.

The Foxes are currently seventh in the Championship, just one point behind Bolton Wanderers with two games remaining.

Pearson's men have won just two of their last 12 games, but the manager does not believe that is down to a lack of experience within his squad.

"I think the players are dealing with the situation very well," Pearson told Sky Sports News. "The fact that the players aren't worrying about the situation and are looking forward to playing the games is good.

"That is exactly what we are looking for, for the players to embrace the challenge rather than be afraid of it.

"Yes, it is a relatively young squad, but it is about how good they are. If they are good enough, then they are old enough. We have got some experienced senior players who play a key role within the group as well."

Pearson's men welcome Watford to the King Power Stadium this evening.
