Fulham boss Marco Silva: We expect a fighting Forest team

Fulham boss Marco Silva expects to face a passionate Nottingham Forest tomorrow night.

Forest need a win at the City Ground as they battle against the drop.

Silva said: “They are in a position that they don't want to be, and it's going to be a team that is going to fight really hard to get out of that position.

“We know that but, at the same time, we want to fight for the points because we want to keep climbing the table and go for the higher positions in the table, if we can.

“When you look at each player they have on the pitch, players that they have on the bench as well, you can see the individual quality they have.

“When you can play in your attacking line with [Chris] Wood, of course [Taiwo] Awoniyi is not ready, but after with [Anthony] Elanga, [Callum] Hudson-Odoi, [Morgan] Gibbs-White, [Divock] Origi - all these players they have around their attacking areas, you see the quality.

“We are aware of it, it's a game that is going to demand ourselves to be at our best level to be able to win."
