Jonas Olsson says that West Brom are determined to finish in the top half of the Premier League.

West Bromwich Albion defender Jonas Olsson has warned Manchester City that the Baggies are fired up for tonight's game.

Roy Hodgson takes his team to the Etihad Stadium as they battle for a top-half finish.

Olsson believes that everyone at The Hawthorns is pulling in the right direction.

"We played well against them on Boxing Day," said the Swede. "We know it is a tough place to go but we are up for it. It's nice to play a team like that and try to be good against them.

"Everyone in the dressing room wants to push on and finish as high as possible. If we can take a few more points, we should be up there fighting for the top half and that would be a really good achievement for this club."

West Brom are currently 13th in the Premier League, with 39 points from their 32 games.
