Wolves will be looking to extend their run of three consecutive games across all competitions at the weekend.
Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has raved about the quality of Wolves ahead of the clash between the two sides on Saturday.
Wolves travel to Old Trafford for a Premier League encounter and will be looking to build on a positive start to the season, where they have picked up eight points from five games.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s side stormed to promotion from the Championship last season and are adapting well to life back in the top flight.
Mourinho has talked up the quality of the West Midlands club, who have a strong Portuguese influence at Molineux.
He believes that senior figures Rui Patricio and Joao Moutinho are two of the vital players within the squad, with the pair sharing 186 international caps for Portugal between them.
“I think they got good young players and got also good experienced, stable players, so they got this season, the Portuguese national team goalkeeper, they got Moutinho that is one of the players of the 100 caps club, big stability in the team, the young ones are young boys with good potential and you can see the work of the coaching staff and the team is a really, really good team,” Mourinho said in his pre-match press conference, as quoted by the Manchester Evening News.
Goalkeeper Patricio, 30, moved to Wolves in the summer for his first taste of Premier League football and is a proven performer at the top level.
Midfield pass master Moutinho, 32, is another summer addition that adds real quality to the side and is the perfect mentor for Ruben Neves.
Wolves are likely to need their top stars on form if they are to pick up a result away to United, but have already picked up a point at home to their neighbours Manchester City this season.
