The Rangers striker says victory at Aston Villa tonight could have one or two choking on their stats.

Zamora scored in the emphatic 4-1 weekend win at West Brom which has put a real spring in their step.

And any kind of repeat at fellow strugglers Villa will send shockwaves through the relegation pack.

Zamora said: "Everyone writing you off telling you which games you can and can't win is bull**** in my eyes. It doesn't mean anything.

"People talk about it being a lifeline but we weren't really out of it to be honest.

"There were only a couple of points in it and there are plenty of points still available.

"It doesn't matter who you are playing, Chelsea, Man City, whoever it is we have all seen enough games when teams down the bottom have beat teams up the top."

Zamora said no one needs telling the significance of the Villa Park clash and the possibility of back-to-back away victories.

"It's a big game and we would love three points there as well. It is good to go into a game with a win behind you," he added.

"I think we have plenty to get out of it and plenty of points still available.

"Until those points aren't available and some teams are relegated then there is still everything to play for."

And Zamora's partnership with 16-goal Charlie Austin could prove to be a decisive factor come the shake-up.

Zamora laughs and says he's happy to take the hits if his partner keeps putting them away.

"We have a good understanding.

"I put myself about and make it hard for defenders and if that means Charlie getting that little bit of space for a chance and a little bit of freedom then superb.

"Am I the battering ram? Yeah but I don't mind at all. I am pleased for him.

"He is happy with it and I am happy with it.

"Charlie has done unbelievably and, fingers crossed, he can continue that and get some more very important goals for us."
