But Aina told BBC Sport: "I'm not really bothered about it to be honest. We've always been focussing on what we want to do, which is going into games and getting points anyway.
"You could say it's helpful (getting clarity before the end of the season) but the energy around the club was like it has been forgotten about anyway, especially among the players. We didn't really talk or think about it - we were just thinking about getting points as we normally would.
"It feels good that it's in our hands. We can take control of that. I don't think (it is nervy), I think the boys enjoy the task. I really enjoy going out there and having to get something. That's the joy of football.
"It would be fantastic (to secure Premier League survival) and I do think we'll do it. It will be fantastic to have that bit of relief, whether that's this week or next week."
