Wolverhampton Wanderers play host to Derby County in the Championship tonight.
Wolves boss Nuno Espirito Santo spoke to reporters yesterday, ahead of his side’s clash with Derby County in the Championship tonight, and shared what he told his players heading into the game against the Rams, as quoted by the Express & Star.
The Black Country outfit have been quite simply sensational this season, and currently sit comfortably at the top of the Championship table, eight points clear of second placed Fulham, with a game in hand over the Cottagers.
Nuno has done a fine job since being handed the reigns at Molineux in the summer, and he deserves great credit for instilling a winning mentality into a group of players who had desperately underperformed for the past few years.
The Portuguese addressed the media yesterday, and shared the message that he gave his players ahead of their clash with Gary Rowett’s Derby side tonight, as quoted by the Express & Star:
“It’s my obligation to prepare the players for what they’re going to face. I said to the players only one thing – the way we prepared for the first game of the season is the way we prepare for every game. It’s always the same preparation it will be the same to the end. They are totally focused on tomorrow.”
Nuno’s men need just six more points to guarantee promotion back to the top flight, whilst Rowett’s side need to keep churning out victories in order to secure their place inside the play-off spots.
