Hull City defender Michael Dawson sees their clash with QPR as a must win.
The Tigers defeated Aston Villa last week.
"There are lots of teams in and around us. It is very tight and it is a big game Saturday," Dawson told the Hull Daily Mail.
"It's all about winning our home games. Earlier in the season we were not beating the teams in and around us, especially at home, so we know Saturday is a big one and a chance for us to follow up the Villa win by doing that.
"We looked at the fixtures before the Newcastle game and we knew we had a run coming up against teams in and around us in the table.
"We built the confidence after the Manchester City result and now we have to build on the win against Villa because it is all about winning now."
