Fulham manager Mark Hughes admits his side's season is till teetering on the brink of relegation but insists that their home form can help them stay aloft.
The 12th-placed Cottagers take on goal-leaking Blackpool at Craven Cottage on Sunday in vital need of a pressure-easing victory.
With four wins and a draw (with Chelsea) in their last five outings at the ground doubled with the fact that the Seasiders have copped 27 goals in their past 10, Hughes is confident going into the match.
"We're very close to where we think we should be," he said.
"We want to maximise our home games and that should get us to the target we thought we'd reach.
"Up until our defeat by Everton last time out we'd been on a great run and that loss maybe made us take a step back.
"But we're still playing well and are on the back of a decent run of results and performances - the first half against Everton is the only exception to that.
"We're happy that we're playing well and producing positive performances, which is what you need at this time of year.
"If you're struggling for form and points, then it becomes a case of looking over your shoulder and then at the fixture list to see where your next points are coming from.
"We don't feel like that, we feel like we're playing well enough to pick up a good portion of the points we have left to play for.
"We're 12th in a very congested area of the table. We still have to get the job done, but we're playing well."
