Wolves Are One Of The Best Teams

Roberto Martinez says that he has no fears about going to Wolves this evening but recognises them as one of the best

The Swans put their five match unbeaten run on the line against Wolves - a side beaten a little over three weeks ago at the Liberty Stadium.

That afternoon goals from Jordi Gomez and Jason Scotland (2) gave the Swans a morale boosting victory in a run that has seen them pick up 11 points from the last 15 available.

Any form of positive result tonight could see the Swans move into their highest league position in almost 25 years and Roberto believes that his side have earned the right to go to Wolves in a positive frame of mind.

“We are in a position now where we should be going anywhere and being ourselves,” he told the Western Mail.

“We’ve got the talent and understanding and our players have adapted to this level of football.

“To be successful in any division, you need the ability to be yourself, to play your own game.

“And I believe we can do that.

“Molineux is a Premier League environment,” he added.

“They are one of the best teams in this division, score goals with ease, are very attack-minded – and play with huge confidence.

“We know how hard it will be and what a challenge it is.

“But these games are the reason why we worked so hard to play at this level.

“Wolves like to win games by scoring goals, and in a way that suits our style of play.
