We’ll look forward to it, against a side who is down there with us.
“People may say that it’s bigger than the others but it’s not because it’s still three points at stake at the end of the day.
“We’re a confident side; we believe in what we do and we believe in each other. Teams have been picking points up around us but it’s up to us to do our job. If we look after that then we’ll be okay.
“We’ve got four more games to retain our Premier League status. We’ll look forward to it and see how we go from there.”

Tarkowski, who replaced Ben Mee at half-time in the defeat to Manchester United, said: “It would be nice to get that first away win.
“We’ve put in some very good performances, especially of late, but we’ve been a bit unfortunate and things just haven’t gone our way.
“That’s just the kind of luck that we’ve had away from home this season. We’re still in a good position so we’ll look forward to it.

“We’re fully confident in ourselves of doing that but the next game is the biggest one for us so we’ll just focus on that.”
