Demba Ba's goal gave Chelsea a 1-0 win at Swansea, who were reduced to 10 men after defender Chico Flores was sent off in the first half.
It keeps second-placed Chelsea two points behind leaders Liverpool, who had earlier beaten City 3-2 at Anfield.
"We obviously knew about the Liverpool result and it's probably the one we wanted," Terry told Sky Sports.
The Blues, who still have to visit Anfield on 27 April, are five points ahead of third-placed Manchester City, although Manuel Pellegrini's side have played two fewer games.
Centre-back Terry suggested that, because of City's games in hand, a Liverpool victory at Anfield in Sunday's early kick-off was better for Jose Mourinho's Chelsea.
He said: "We've won our game and the pressure is still on the teams above and below us. We knew we would make it very easy for them if didn't win our games, regardless of the result at Anfield.
