Mauricio Pochettino loves watching Wolves
Tottenham chief Mauricio Pochettino expects a difficult test from Wolves – one of his favourite teams to watch.
Nuno Espirito Santo's pack are heading to Wembley on Saturday to face Pochettino's Spurs.
The hosts go into the encounter second in the Premier League, Wolves 10th, while Tottenham won 3-2 at Molineux in November.
"Wolves are a very good team, one of the best teams I like to watch the most," said Pochettino.
"They have a very good squad, good players, great manager and I think they are doing a great job there.
"It is going to be tough, it was tough the game we played a few months ago."
Pochettino has also revealed that Nuno previously spent a bit of time at Spurs as a learning exercise.
"I know him very well, he spent one day here, the whole day talking with us," added Pochettino.
"I have a very good memory and he is doing a fantastic job."
Dele Alli is a doubt for Tottenham with a hamstring injury, which kept him out of their 5-0 victory over Bournemouth on Boxing Day.
He is due to be assessed ahead of the game.
Spurs are also likely to be without Serge Aurier (groin), Mousa Dembele (ankle), Eric Dier (appendicitis), Jan Vertongen (thigh) and Victor Wanyama (knee).
Wolves are on a five-match winless run against Tottenham in the top flight. Their last victory against them was a 1-0 success at Molineux in 2010.
