Fulham manager Scott Parker has a warning for Leeds United.
The two clubs, who were promoted in the summer, are going head to head on Friday.
If Fulham were to win the game at Craven Cottage, they would go out of the bottom three for the first time since December.
Leeds won 4-3 at Elland Road in September when the two teams last met, but Parker feels his side are much improved.
"There is no pressure, the pressure comes from us," Parker told reporters.
"It is about us getting three points on Friday night and putting in a performance. That is our focus.
"We are a different team, certainly a different animal this time round. You can see that with the personnel and the way the team has grown and developed.
"It is a different side to when we last played. We take things from that game and other games, but us as a team have moved on from when we last played them."
Asked about Leeds, Parker added: "It's tough, they're a very tough side, a unique side in terms of the way they are set up.
"It's unique, you don't come across it a lot in this division - had it a couple of times last year. The intensity they play at is always one you need to match.
"We were in the same league last year and have played them once this year, so we understand fully what Leeds bring, their energy and the intensity of the game. It's a big game.
"They commit a lot of bodies forward, they score a lot of goals. They are right up there in the charts in terms of chances created and bodies in the box. They always commit a high volume of bodies and their games are expensive (in terms of goals conceded) at times.
"So, while that cause you stress and pressure, there is an opportunity at times to get at them on transition on counter-attacks.
"But you need to be able to (deal with) the intensity and the numbers they create, so your structure has got to be good and individually you have got to be tuned in on that. But there is an opportunity you can try and exploit and try and be deadly as well."
