"You can say it adds some spice to it. It's going to be an intense game, that's for sure.
"There's always pressure on and especially now. We have spoken about that pressure being a privilege. It's a good thing. I like that. I think both teams can feel the pressure."

"We get asked all the time if we're feeling the pressure but we're not. We know what we need to do and where we're at. The mood in camp is relaxed," said Ward.
"We try to take as much pressure off ourselves as we can, while making sure there's clear focus on the job in hand.
"The pressure for me is on Villa. They need three points. We need a point but will go out to get three."

Birmingham v Aston Villa (19:00 BST)
Birmingham are currently third-bottom in the table, two points and one place above rivals Aston Villa.
Just five points separate the bottom five teams, with Bristol City currently occupying the only relegation spot.
Birmingham won the reverse fixture at Villa Park in November thanks to a second-half goal from striker Claudia Walker.
Who will be the hero tonight?

Image source, Rex FeaturesWhat a night we've got in store with three of the WSL's bottom four teams in action.
Coming up, Arsenal will be looking to strengthen their hold on the final Champions League spot with a win against West Ham at 19:30 BST.
While a shock victory for the Hammers would pretty much guarantee their survival.
But first we have a huge second city derby as strugglers Birmingham and Aston Villa meet at Damson Park.
