Slavisa Jokanovic has not forgotten the tests his Fulham side faced against Burton Albion last season as the teams prepare to meet again this weekend.
The Cottagers head to the Pirelli Stadium tomorrow (3pm) on the back of a 2-1 victory over Hull City in midweek - their first home win of the campaign.
They were unable to beat the Brewers at Craven Cottage last term, with Albion on the verge of a fine triumph in September thanks to Jackson Irvine's 18-yard strike, only for Ryan Sessegnon to ensure the game finished all square with an injury-time equaliser.
In the return clash, an impressive Fulham side were held until just after half-time by Nigel Clough's men, before Stefan Johansen and Scott Malone found the net in a performance Clough ranks as one of the best his team have faced in the Championship.
Jokanovic, though, knows it will not be an easy ride at the Pirelli - especially with Burton having played a day earlier in midweek than their opponents.
"It's important to win the games - at the end, we must earn some confidence after the win against Hull," he told GetWestLondon.
"They were tough, and we must be ready to concentrate on improving ourselves immediately.
"We don't have time to adapt people in the squad today, unfortunately this time doesn't exist and we are looking for a better performance to be confident, more solid with more quality, determination and organisation to be a better team.
"I remember very well the two games we played away and home against them (Burton).
"In both, they (caused) many problems and they are strong, fast and physical - a very solid team.

"For us, they have one day more to rest before the game, and at the end, all this difficulty we will find against Burton is similar to what we find in this competition.
"We must be ready for everything."
