Cameron Jerome wants Norwich City to turn around their disappointing home form when they face Swansea City in the Premier League on Saturday.
Alex Neil's side have won just one of their five top-flight matches at Carrow Road so far season, form which has contributed to them sitting in 16th position – two points above the relegation zone.
The solitary victory was a 3-1 triumph over AFC Bournemouth and Norwich have gone six Premier League matches without a win since then, losing four.
Jerome was on target in the 2-1 defeat to league leaders Manchester City last weekend.
The striker believes the pressure is on for Norwich to turn around their home form and the match with Swansea – a side that have only come away from Carrow Road victorious once in their previous 15 visits in all competitions – is the perfect chance to do that.
"We're well aware how big the game is against Swansea and its importance, and the impetus will be on us to take the game to them, especially with us being at home," he said.
"They're not in the best form as well, so it'll be a game we're positive we can get a good result from."
Swansea's recent form of one win from their last seven top-flight fixtures has seen them slide down to 13th in the table.
Although Garry Monk's men were beaten 3-0 by Arsenal last time out, the coach saw signs of improvement which he hopes can be built upon.
"It's not going to be easy, there are no easy games and these teams make it hard to play like we did against Arsenal," Monk said.
"But it's about the attitude we showed against Arsenal. You could sense there was something about us, especially in the first half.
"Our intentions were good, and it's now about keeping it that way. We have to focus on doing that and producing that kind of performance in the games we have coming up."
Wayne Routledge has not featured for Swansea since October 4, but he could be in line for a return to the squad following a calf injury.
After missing out last week through illness, Dieumerci Mbokani is expected to be available for selection, but Matt Jarvis (knee) and Andre Wisdom (knee) remain sidelined.
Russell Martin will also be absent as he serves a suspension following his red card against Manchester City last weekend.
