Sheffield Wednesday manager Brian Laws remains confident his side will avoid the drop after the Owls battled back to take a point from Monday's 1-1 draw with Plymouth Argyle.

Tommy Spurr grabbed an 80th-minute equaliser with a stunning long-range strike after Peter Halmosi had given the visitors a second minute lead.

Laws said: "It's going to go to the wire, but the players have a lot of belief and a lot of confidence in their ability.

"It's all about keeping your nerve. Everyone is going to be nervy down at the bottom. Yes we're in a run of form, too many draws, but you'd rather go into the games knowing we'd got confidence than if we'd been losing week in, week out.

"It could be as daft as three wins. There's going to be so many twists and turns, I don't think even the top half is going to be finalised until the last game, the last kick.

"I've told the players 'Keep you're nerve, because we've got a lot of belief that we'll do it'."
