Marco Silva has warned his Fulham side to keep their feet on the ground after their dramatic derby win over Brentford as they prepare to travel to a rejuvenated Crystal Palace side this weekend.

The Whites head to Selhurst Park looking to register maximum points from a pair of London derbies, but Silva told his pre-match press conference at Motspur Park this afternoon that the Eagles will be much more dangerous after their encouraging recent results under Oliver Glasner.

The Fulham head coach said:

“It’s going to be a Palace side that wants to get better results. Last week for them was really good, because they won against Spurs, they kept themselves in the Carabao Cup in a tough game away from home against Villa, and they got a draw against Wolves away from home.

That means that after a really tough start for them, the last week, even with all these problems and all these injuries, they were able to get points, with a great win at home against Tottenham as well. It’s going to be tough, normally at home they are really tough to play against – that pressure, the way they play, the way they try to press every time, with the crowd behind them. It’s going to be a tough one.”

Silva admitted to something of a selection dilemma over whether to reward Monday’s hero Harry Wilson with a starting spot on Saturday.

“Harry is pushing. He had a massive impact [after coming against Brentford]. He has the capacity to smell the right moments to get into the box. He’s working really hard, it’s been tough for me to leave him out. It’s not easy to leave players out. All these players are so, so important for us. I can mention many players. Harry is in the spotlight because of what he did on Monday. It’s a good example of how these players can make an impact from the bench.”
