Fulham boss Slavisa Jokanovic has taken to Twitter to send a message to fans ahead of this evening’s clash with Leeds United at Craven Cottage.

Jokanovic’s men enjoyed a superb 3-1 home win over Preston North End on Saturday, as goals from Sone Aluko, Chris Martin and Neeskens Kebano found the net in a strong performance.

Saturday’s win means it’s five league games without defeat for Fulham, with just two points dropped in that run as they keep the pressure on the top six.

Fulham sit five points off the play-off places but with a game in hand, and they will hope to remain in touching distance of the top six after tonight’s game with Leeds.

The Whites arrive in West London this evening in search of another three points, having beaten Birmingham City 3-1 at St. Andrews on Friday evening.

Garry Monk’s side are unbeaten in four, winning three of those games as they look to secure their play-off spot in the coming weeks.

The reverse fixture between the two sides ended in a 1-1 draw at Elland Road earlier this season, and Fulham boss Jokanovic is focused on claiming a win this evening.

The Serb took to Twitter on Monday to state that Fulham’s mentality will remain the same as they prepare for a huge game, stating that his players are ready to compete against Leeds.
