Nottingham Forest manager Dougie Freedman has said that his side have given themselves a "great chance" of making a late bid for the Championship playoffs this season.
Forest have won seven and lost just one of their 10 outings since the Scot took over from Stuart Pearce at the club, reviving their slim hopes of a top-six finish.
This evening's 2-0 victory over Rotherham United brought them to within eight points of sixth-placed Brentford, and with matches against the three teams currently directly above them in the table still to come before the end of the campaign, Freedman is hoping that they can sneak their way back into contention.
"I just felt with the teams winning last night we had to come and win a game of football when the pressure is on us and we delivered again," he told reporters.
"We have got to go and play Wolves and Brentford and Watford so we have given ourselves a great chance.
"We can take some points off the teams above us, we just have to make sure we are very professional and responsible in the way we approach it."
Forest's next match comes away to fourth-placed Norwich City on Saturday.
