Fulham boss Marco Silva says there’ll be no underestimating Leeds United today.
Leeds have shipped 11 goals in their recent defeats by Crystal Palace and Liverpool.
But ahead of today’s early kickoff, Silva said: “Yes, yes. I know that they are not in the best position, [but] they are fighting for something.
“It’s nothing different for us to the last three teams that we played against – Bournemouth was the same, West Ham was the same, and Everton.
“We don’t look for [Leeds’] last two games, it will be the first mistake if you look for the last two results.
“Of course, we analyse the games and we did what we should have done, but we didn’t look for the results because it will be the first mistake if you think those results is something that is a normal situation for Leeds, because we already played twice against them this season.
“We know how they can be really tough to play against if they are at their best, that is clear for me, they are always a threat in the attack line. There are very good players in that attack line, players with a lot of skill that can create problems to you.
“Of course, we analysed them as a team, we know their weakness, but we know their strengths as well, and we want to exploit the weakness to try to win the football match.
“But the first step for us to win that football match is to respect them as a team and to understand that, in the Premier League, the position doesn’t matter. If you are not at your best level, any team can beat you.”
