City boss wants respect not fear

Second-placed Albion have lost just two of their last 21 games and make the trip to Bristol to face a Robins outfit who, in stark contrast, have slipped down the table having won just two of their previous 19.The fortunes of the two sides could not be more different but Baggies head coach Roberto Di Matteo has labelled City "very dangerous" and the Italian is expecting a tough test.And Johnson told Bristol City Player: "We can go into the match knowing we partially got our game back (in Tuesday's 1-1 draw against Leicester) and the crowd were magnificent on the night."We can't turn up on Sunday and be worried by West Brom. We have to respect them because they're on a good run. They have players with experience of the top flight and to be honest they are a Premier League team in waiting because they are still paying the sorts of money they would in the top league."However, it should be a spur to our team and it will teach us a lot about ourselves as to whether we can handle a Premier League side here at Ashton Gate."
