Kenwyne Jones has insisted that Cardiff City will not be "overawed" in this weekend's South Wales derby.

The Bluebirds, who currently sit in the Premier League's relegation zone, travel to Swansea City tomorrow evening.

The striker, who joined the club during the January transfer window, told the team's website: "Getting the bragging rights over your opponents is a major thing of course. But there's the added importance on this one, we need the three points to get out of the relegation group.

"For myself and a lot of experienced players in the squad we won't get overawed by it. The fans can go wild but as a player and as a team we have to focus on playing the game and getting the points because we desperately need them.

"Both teams have their separate situations and in our case I think we need the points more than them. We have to go into the game trying to get those points and to play our own game."

Cardiff won their home game against Swansea earlier in the season.
