Brighton boss Roberto de Zerbi expects a battle against Fulham.

De Zerbi admits he has full respect for Fulham manager Marco Silva.

"hey are a very good team, very good coach," he said.

“I respect the Fulham coach a lot but we are focussed on ourselves and what we have to do to win the game and to play well.

“We have to follow the quality of performance.

“I think we were not playing well in the last three or four games but (on Thursday) I enjoyed watching the game.

“The next focus is to play in our style, with our quality, to show the quality of our players. (On Thursday) I think we did it."
