What are they saying?
Steve Bruce: "Expectation is huge here but that's why I went for experience. I've thoroughly enjoyed the challenge of my 19 months here. Can we now top it off by getting where we want to be?"
Slavisa Jokanovic: "We're the youngest team. We must try to dominate the situation and put them under stress. We're probably the team with more energy. Experience in life is important but it's not everything - all of us can make mistakes."
Who is going to win?
Villa 12/5
Draw 21/10
Fulham 7/5
90: Five minutes of added time!
Can Fulham hold on or do Aston Villa have one last Championship goal in them.
90+1: Albert Adomah's cross is headed wide by Scott Hogan. Nobody is picking him up.
92: Jack Grealish goes down in the box under Matt Target's challenge. The Fulham player slips into Grealish but the referee is unmoved as the ball rolls out for a goal kick.
90+4: Ryan Sessegnon draws a foul from Robert Snodgrass and Fulham can wind down the clock.
Fulham's first half dominance was enough to see off Aston Villa's second half comeback. Tom Cairney's calm finish from Ryan Sessegnon's pass did the damage and Fulham then held on with ten men from the 70th minute following Denis Odoi's dismissal after receiving a second yellow card.
How did Ryan Sessegnon get on today? And what does it say about his future?
Here's Samuel Lovett with the answer.
↵We know Fulham are in for one hell of a payday.
But just how much have they just guaranteed themselves with that win today?
