Norwich midfielder Bradley Johnson is fully focused on the exciting battle ahead in the Sky Bet Championship promotion race.

The Canaries brushed aside Nottingham Forest 3-1 at Carrow Road before the international break to leave them fourth, three points behind leaders Bournemouth.

A trip to Brighton on Good Friday is followed by a home clash with Sheffield Wednesday on Easter Monday and Johnson is relishing the challenge the final seven matches will present.

He told the club's official website: "We've got to turn up with the attitude that it's going to be a battle and we've got to win that battle.

"There are seven games to go and we've got to win as many as we can. Everyone in that changing room wants the same thing - we all want to get promoted this year.

"We've got a good chance of doing that now and if we win every game we'll probably get an automatic spot. We'll just concentrate on ourselves and take every game as it comes.

"We know it's not going to be easy and can't just turn up thinking we're going to win. We've just got to work hard and hopefully come May we'll be back in the Premier League."
