Lawrence Vigouroux says Swansea City must not be “pushed about” when they bid to continue their winning run at Millwall on Saturday (15:00 BST).
Swansea go in search of a sixth successive Championship victory but face a Lions side who are also in fine form.
Alex Neil’s team are eighth in the table, three places above Swansea, having won four of their past five matches.
Goalkeeper Vigouroux says Swansea are expecting a stern examination at The Den – but that they will take inspiration from recent away successes at Queens Park Rangers and Sunderland as well as last month’s draw at Leeds.
“It will be another tough game but a lot of the games have been tough,” he said.
“We have just got to keep playing the way we have. We dominate quite a lot of teams on the ball and also we have been very dangerous in the final third. If we continue that, it will be really good game.
“They need to win but we are not here to be pushed about. We are a big club and we have got to go there, go toe to toe and try to get three points.”
While Millwall are only three points outside the play-offs, Swansea are six points adrift of sixth-placed Coventry City.
The Swans are technically still in contention to extend their season going into the penultimate round of second-tier fixtures in 2024-24.
Realistically, however, the Swans can begin planning for another year in the Championship – and Vigouroux is hoping this campaign will finish with a flourish.
“I think the good thing is that we can hopefully take it into next season,” he added.
“We have done really well over the last 11 games. If we can continue that and then go into pre-season, it can only be good for the club.”
