Oliver Glasner says Crystal Palace need to be wary of a Burnley side playing better than their league position suggests at Selhurst Park on Wednesday night (19:30 GMT).
Palace picked up a huge three points with a 1-0 win over Brighton & Hove Albion last Sunday, thanks to Ismaïla Sarr's second-half goal.
The challenge is now ensuring that result kickstarts a strong run of form. Burnley arrive in South London for a midweek game under the floodlights, lying 19th in the table and 11 points away from safety.
However, at his pre-match press conference, Glasner insisted the Eagles won't be taking their opponents lightly.
Read on below for all the key talking points!
It’s been a tough period, the last two months. But that’s sport, that’s life. We had many months of enjoying and then it became more about finding solutions.
That’s why I thought it was important to get this win against Brighton, a special win of course.
The atmosphere was always good here at the training ground. But after the game it was better, going home with three points and a win.
On the other side we know that we have tomorrow, the next chance to keep this positive feeling alive.
It's important for us to play better than we did against Brighton. I think we defended really well, we gave them just one finish in the whole second half, and this is what we need.
This is our foundation, but of course now we hope with a little bit more confidence, that our attacking game is more fluid and that we're creating more chances.
They [Burnley] are playing better than their results show. They played better than losing 2-0 at home, against West Ham.
I remember when we played there [a 1-0 win in December] in the second-half it was a bit lucky. They hit the post, they had a lot of good situations.
But we can’t affect their situation, only our situation.
We need to show the same togetherness [against Burnley]. We showed it when we scored the goal [against Brighton] all the subs that were warming up next to the pitch were celebrating and joining in.
I liked these pictures, and we showed them again. This gives you a good feeling, because you can be upset when you don't start, or you share the positive emotions. But this club is just full of great characters, great lads.
That's why it's important to focus on what we do.
It was very positive. Jørgen with his energy was always a threat. He made it difficult for the Brighton defenders.
They both created chances. Evann [Guessand] in the 25 minutes he was playing, he had an assist for the goal and he helped create Jørgen’s big chance at the end.
We have to work with both on the tactical side, as we did today on the screen. They will need minutes to get used to the way we play.
Brennan Johnson also did very well. So it’s good to have all these options.
I think he’s played an incredible season. I only rested him in one game I think, he’s played every other game with incredible consistency.
The level he is showing is really high. We can rely on him. With Chris Richards and Jefferson Lerma [in the back three] we’ve shown we can keep a clean sheet.
This was important. It looked like they had more understanding after training the whole week together.

For the goalkeeper as captain, it is always difficult during the game, because sometimes he's so far away from the players, so that's why sometimes when we score a goal, he's really celebrating with the fans.
He's giving good speeches to the players before game, at half-time, he's pushing them. And he shows his confidence with his performances. That helps you get the acceptance from everyone.
For me it was clear that Dean would be the captain, and he's doing very well.
I'm close to being here for two years and playing a hundred games in that time I think shows that we are quite successful. Because it means we've played 24 games in the other competitions [outside of the Premier League]. That's why it's a positive to have this 100th game.
When I arrived, there were quite a few injuries before that game against Burnley.
It’s a different team now. But being successful has made me proud. So many people contributed to this and can be proud of what has happened in these last 100 games.
