Davies: Let's make Cottage a fortress
Simon Davies has revealed his delight at Fulham's improved home form this season, and believes the Cottagers can 'nick a point' at Liverpool.Last weekend's 2-1 victory over Tottenham at Craven Cottage was Fulham's second consecutive victory and their fifth home win of the season - the same number the Cottagers managed in the whole of last season.
"It's good that we're maintaining our home form," Davies told the club's official website. "Last year our home form wasn't good enough and it put us in trouble and we were very lucky to get out of it in the end. It's something that we really wanted to work on and so far this season we've had some great results at the Cottage.
"Everyone worked really hard last weekend and it was a good performance throughout the team. That's the effort you've got to put in to get a result against a team like Tottenham."
They have yet to win away however, a statistic that does not bode well ahead of this weekend's trip to Anfield. But Davies insists that he and his team-mates go into the game in positive mood.
"It's going to be a tough test but we've had back-to-back wins so we'll go and give it a really good go. The atmosphere is a bit different from anywhere else and the boys can go there and enjoy it now.
"A lot of teams have been close to getting something this year at Anfield so we'll give it our best shot. The beauty is that we've had a couple of wins so we're not desperate so if we can earn a point or nick a win then it'll be all the better for us."
