Felix Magath "feels sure" Fulham will avoid relegation

Fulham manager Felix Magath has maintained that his side will avoid relegation from the Premier League this season, starting with a victory over Chelsea next weekend.

The Cottagers were on course for three points away at West Bromwich Albion earlier today, only for substitute Matej Vydra to deny them with four minutes remaining.

"We started very well and we had chances, the same as West Brom, but the more time went on, the more we went back like in recent games," the former Wolfsburg manager is quoted as saying by clubcall.com.

"I've seen enough to feel sure Fulham will stay up. I was sure before the game, and I'm sure after the game. We were close to a win and the next game we will win."

Fulham remain routed to the foot of the league table following the draw.
