Brian Little knows the players are feeling the tension
"When the games come around you can tell the players are under a bit of pressure," said Little.
"They're almost a different animal on matchday. That little bit of tension and everything that's at stake is having an affect them on a matchday.
"But we're trying hard to make sure we come to terms with that."
Little must prepare his side to face a Rotherham team who are battling at the other end of the table.
"Rotherham are a good side," added Little, "I went to watch them play a week or two back.
"They have two or three ex-players of mine in their side so I know their strengths and weaknesses.
"They are currently on good form, I think they were disappointed that their last game was called off. But we don't fear them. I don't think you fear anybody in this business.
"I always feel that when a team is under pressure and when people look at footballers and think they're not going to so something, you can wind them up.
"When you look at the result we had at Bury (1-0 win) and the way we played at Rochdale (0-0), we have enough about us to go there and get a result. There's no reason why we can't.
"They are a good side and having a really good season, but if our attitude is spot-on we've got a great chance."
