Chris Hughton admits that he will stay nervous until Norwich City have mathematically avoided the drop.

Norwich City manager Chris Hughton has admitted that he will not be able to relax until his side have got enough points to stay in the Premier League.

The 2-2 draw on Saturday afternoon with Swansea City has left Norwich 13th in the Premier League, five points above the drop zone.

Hughton, however, said that everyone will be "anxious" during the final stage of the season.

"We wanted a win but nothing changes, we still have to get enough points from the six remaining matches to make sure we're secure," BBC Sport quotes Hughton as saying.

"We're at the part of the season that makes everyone that bit anxious and you have to have belief in the players."

Wigan Athletic in 18th have two games in hand over Norwich.
