Fulham captain Brede Hangeland has insisted that his team have what it takes to avoid relegation from the Premier League this season.

The Cottagers are currently two points from safety with three games left to play following Saturday's 3-1 defeat at Tottenham Hotspur.

Despite Fulham's tough predicament near the foot of the table, Hangeland is confident that they can pull off an unlikely escape in the coming weeks.

"I think all three games remaining now we look at those and think, 'yeah, we should probably get something from all of them if we play well'," the defender is quoted as saying by Sky Sports News.

"We will work really hard to prepare for the next vital game, then the next one and the next one. Hopefully that will see us through."

Fulham return to Premier League action this Saturday when they welcome Hull City to Craven Cottage.
