Don’t waste it warns Di Matteo

Albion head coach Roberto Di Matteo has warned his players not to waste the momentum of their 5-0 win over Watford by slipping up at Leicester.
The Baggies head for the Walkers Stadium tomorrow looking to build on their goal-fest against the Hornets, but Di Matteo believes that win will count for little unless his side use it as a springboard.
He said: “The mood has been good since then but as I said after Saturday’s game, it was three points and nothing else.
“We’re looking to build on the last result because otherwise it’s useless. It’s no good winning that way if you don’t pick up points afterwards.”
The Italian is bracing his side for a tough test against a solid Foxes team.
He added: “They are a team that don’t concede many goal. They have only conceded 10 goals so far and the way they play is very solid. They are not very attractive in that sense but they defend well and work hard as a team.”
