Hughes: Momentum must be maintained
Mark Hughes has demanded Fulham keep their foot on the pedal as they seek to continue their climb up the Barclays Premier League.
The Cottagers put some daylight between themselves and the relegation zone with last weekend's 2-0 victory over Wigan, a result that lifted them to 10th.
It was only their second league win of the season and Hughes wants more of the same when Aston Villa visit south-west London.
"Performance-wise we've been fine but results-wise we want more points on the board," said the Fulham manager. "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."
