Fulham boss Mark Hughes wants the Cottagers to produce a sustained march up the Premier League. Fulham picked up a 2-0 win over Wigan last weekend and Hughes is hoping for more performances of the same ilk, and points to follow.
"Performance-wise we've been fine but results-wise we want more points on the board," he said.
"We've been playing well this season, although with a bit of frustration with a few draws initially.
"We had a couple of defeats but last weekend I thought we were excellent.
"The level we reached against Wigan was what I'm looking for and I want to make sure the standard we achieved last weekend is maintained against Villa.
"We want to build on that result against Wigan and achieve back-to-back wins.
"If we can pick up six points in two games we'll very much establish ourselves in the top half of the table - and that's where we want to be for the remainder of the season."
