Robert Koren is hoping to use the game against Stoke as a spring-board to get Albion's hopes of avoiding relegation back on track. The Baggies find themselves seven points from safety with only eight games remaining however face fellow strugglers Stoke and Portsmouth in coming weeks.
The Slovenian captain, who equalised via deflection against Bolton on Saturday, believes Albion need another four or five wins to beat the drop and is his backing his teammates to overcome the pressure of relegation.
"Of course there is a lot of pressure on us and we need to cope with that," 'RoKo' said.
"That shouldn't be an excuse or a problem for us.
"The next game is Stoke and we need to be focussed on that because we need to win four or five of the remaining games.
"There are eight games to go and we need to win as many as possible and hope in the end that is enough to stay in the league.
"We need to be positive and stick together until the end of the season.
"We still need to believe and show the desire defensively that we have shown in the last two games.
"Then offensively we need to show some more concentration for 90 minutes and score some goals.
"The next game against Stoke is very important.
"If we can get three points I think the fight will be open again.
"We know it's not just about us but it's really important that we're only focussed on ourselves and that we get three points in the next game.
"If we get three points we can look forward and hopefully the other results will go our way."
