Wolves have been simply brilliant this season (Getty Images)
Wolves’ stellar unbeaten run in the month of September came to an end with a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Watford and Nuno Espirito Santo’s men crumbled to their third defeat of the campaign against Brighton last week.
The new boys of the Premier League were flying high after enjoying a fantastic start to the season but back-to-back losses in the Premier League seems to have taken the wind out of their sails.
And they will be up against it once again when they face play host to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday. The Lilywhites went down 1-0 to Manchester City on Monday but they will be fancying their chances of getting back to winning ways.
Diogo Jota picked up a knock in the last game and might have to sit out for this one. Apart from that, Nuno Santo will have the entire squad of players at his disposal and he will be expected to field the same eleven that lost 1-0 to Brighton last week.
The Portuguese international has been in good form between the sticks, making some flying saves to keep his team in the hunt.
The Englishman has put together some solid displays in the heart of the defence and should do the same on Saturday.
Comfortable in possession and perfect balance of composure and aggression. He might be knocking on the door for an international call-up.
The Frenchman’s strength and aerial prowess will be an important factor to keep Harry Kane at bay.
He wasn’t particularly impressive in the last game but has been one of the most consistent performers in the Premier League.
The veteran has added that much-needed stability to Wolves’ midfield and will have his work cut out against Christian Eriksen.
One of the most balanced central midfielders in the Premier League. Nuno Santo will be expecting him to raise his game in the all-important clash against Spurs.
He will be expected to link-up play with Adama Traore down the left and will have his work out against a potent Spurs’ attack.
‘The Portuguese international was rewarded with an international debut earlier in the month due to his consistent performances in the Premier League and he must put his hand up on Sunday.
The injury to Diogo Jota should prompt the manager to give this young speedster and dribbler another start.
Had a pretty disappointing game last week but has contributed a lot with goals and assists. He will need to play an important role if Wolves are to come away with a positive result on Sunday.
