Hull City manager Sergej Jakirovic believes his side's home match against Watford is still a "50-50 game" despite head coach Javi Gracia's recent departure.
Gracia, who was in his second spell at Vicarage Road, left the Hornets on Sunday following their 2-0 defeat by Swansea City.
"I can say it's classic Watford," Jakirovic told BBC Radio Humberside.
"I know a lot about Watford because Slaven Bilic was the coach there, so I know a lot of things, and OK, they are now in a bad moment, but there is quality.
"I watched the Swansea game, I watched the Blackpool game. They took just one point, but easily they could've taken four in those two games, so this is a 50-50 game.
"There is a lot of quality, a lot of young players, very big potential and we will see now."
Hull currently sit third in the table, on 53 points, and are five points off the automatic promotion places.
