John Arne Riise says that he won't accept defeat against Odense in Fulham's final Group K match in the Europa League.

John Arne Riise has revealed that it would be "hurtful" if Fulham were to exit the Europa League against Odense this evening.

The Premier League side are guaranteed a spot in the final 32 if they defeat Odense in their last fixture in Group K at Craven Cottage.

"I personally would be devastated if we don't go through because I hate losing and I always try to win every game I play," said Riise.

"Obviously we're not going to win every game but tomorrow's a game that we are favourites to win and it would be quite hurtful not to go through."

Fulham are second in their group table, six points adrift of leaders FC Twente.
