Harry Wilson has praised the squad effort at Fulham and insists there is even more to come from his side ahead of facing Ipswich Town.

Fulham are eighth in the Premier League heading into Sunday's clash at Craven Cottage, unbeaten in their past seven matches.

Marco Silva's side have played seven games in the space of 29 days, facing each of the current top 10, and doing so without some key players.

Wilson is among those to have played his part when called upon mainly from the bench, having already registered a career-best five top-flight goals for the season.

"We're in a good moment and if we get a few more wins then we'll be a bit happier," he said.

"We've been missing a lot of key players. We were fairly lucky with injuries last season and at the start of this season, but we've been really hit in the last month or two.

"The lads who have come in, who maybe haven't played as much, have done really well and it's been a real squad effort.

"To go unbeaten in the last seven games, with some really tough games in there, shows we're a good team, but I also feel we can get better."

Fulham conceded late on to draw 2-2 with Bournemouth last time out, while next opponents Ipswich were surprise 2-0 winners against Chelsea.

That was Ipswich's first home win since returning to the Premier League and just their third overall this campaign, moving them to within one point of safety.

Liam Delap was key to the victory as he converted a penalty he had himself won to open the scoring, before teeing up Omari Hutchinson for the second.

That is now nine Premier League goal involvements for the campaign for Delap, who Kieran McKenna believes has improved massively since arriving from Manchester City in July.

"I've been saying to people around the club that he's improving and he's a different beast now to what he was in July," McKenna said.

"We're seeing that rate of improvement from a 21-year-old, showing the increased maturity that he is, the desire to improve and that's a really positive sign at 21."

PLAYERS TO WATCH

Fulham - Antonee Robinson

Robinson set up Wilson's goal in the draw against Bournemouth and ended 2024 with 10 Premier League assists to his name, which is the joint-most by a Fulham player in a single year alongside Luis Boa Morte in 2005.

The United States international is one of only two players in the competition's history with 10 or more assists in a year without scoring a goal, the other being Kieran Trippier for Newcastle United in 2023 (also 10 assists).

Four assists in December.

Ipswich - Liam Delap

Delap continued to show his importance to Ipswich with his display against Chelsea, with his seventh Premier League goal the most by a player for any of the newly promoted clubs this term.

He needs just one goal or assist against Fulham to reach double figures for goal involvements in 19 games – only Marcus Stewart (15 games) and Marcus Bent (19) reached that milestone in fewer than 20 matches for Town in the competition.

MATCH PREDICTION: Fulham win

Fulham are unbeaten in their past six league matches against Ipswich, with the most recent encounter ending 1-1 at Portman Road in August.

Ipswich have lost their two most recent visits to Craven Cottage, which includes a 4-1 loss there in their opening match of 2018.

Indeed, Town have only won their first league game in one of the last 16 calendar years (D8 L7), winning 4-0 at Gillingham in League One in 2022.

McKenna's side have won two of their past four Premier League matches, however, which is as many as they had won in their previous 28 combined. Not since February 2002 have they won successive games in the competition.

Fulham's 29 points from 19 Premier League games, meanwhile, is their second-most at the halfway stage of a campaign, behind only 2022-23 when they had 31 points.
