Marco Silva
Fulham manager Marco Silva is preparing his team for a challenging encounter against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux on Sunday. Despite Wolves’ impending relegation to the Championship for the 2026/27 season, Silva remains cautious and emphasizes the need for Fulham to perform at their best to achieve their first-ever league double over Wolves.
Marco Silva said: “I know that they are relegated, but if I go back and look for, for example, their last six home games, I saw them winning against Liverpool, I saw them winning against Villa, I saw them get a great result [2-2] against the team that is on top of the table [Arsenal] in the Premier League, that is fighting to be champions.”
Marco Silva continued: “And if you think that even if they are or not relegated, it’s going to be easy or not, when you have these types of games, players want to show their capacities – individual point of view, them as a football club, and of course they want to win the game as well.”
Marco Silva added: “It’s that feeling [for Wolves] of last game of the season at home with your fans, you know what that represents as well. They want to finish in a different way. Everything is there, and that showed to me that it’s going to be a difficult game.”
Marco Silva concluded: “I didn’t know about the double over Wolves – let’s go for it. But the first thing you have, I’m not talking about respecting themselves, more to respect ourselves, what we have been doing, and the points that are there for us to fight for.”
Silva’s comments highlight the competitive nature of the Premier League, where even relegated teams can pose significant challenges. Wolves have demonstrated their ability to compete against top teams, securing victories against Liverpool and Aston Villa, and drawing with league leaders Arsenal. This track record serves as a reminder that Fulham cannot afford to underestimate their opponents.
As Fulham aims to secure a historic league double over Wolves, Silva’s focus remains on respecting their own achievements and maintaining the high standards they have set throughout the season. The match at Molineux promises to be a test of resilience and determination for both sides, with Wolves eager to end their season on a positive note in front of their home fans.
