Wolverhampton Wanderers are due to take on Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday evening.
Tottenham Hotspur defender Toby Alderweireld has praised Wolverhampton Wanderers on Sky Sports.
Wolves have made a brilliant start to life in the Premier League since being promoted, and are already sat in the top half.
And although Nuno’s side have lost their last two matches on the bounce, Alderweireld is under no illusions over how hard it will be to beat Wolves when Spurs take them on on Saturday evening.
“They have a very good team, they play good football, they have started very well, so it is a difficult place to go and we will have to be on a top level to perform there,” the towering centre-back said.
“I am not surprised (at how well they have been doing) as they are a very good team, with a solid defence and some very good players up front.”
Alderweireld is likely to start for Spurs against Wolves, with the Belgian coming back into Mauricio Pochettino’s thinking this season.
Wolves have already turned Molineux into a fortress, and have picked up positive results against the likes of Manchester City and Everton at their home ground.
Tottenham have also begun the season well, but they were beaten by City in their most recent outing.
If Wolves do beat Spurs they could move up as high as eighth in the Premier League table this weekend.
