Wolves boss Julen Lopetegui insists his side are still fully focused on survival ahead of their visit to Leicester City. The Foxes are set to welcome an in-form Wolves side to the King Power Stadium on Saturday (3pm kick-off). Wins over Chelsea and Brentford have pushed Wolves seven points clear of the bottom three, while Leicester are looking for their first three points since February.
Julen Lopetegui said: “We are not safe yet, we have to work very hard to achieve our top points. We have to put the focus on the work we have to do and not the work we have done. This is football and it demands a lot of focus. We have seven finals in front of us. The first is against Leicester, we know the kind of match we are going to find there and we have to be ready. We are in the middle of the battle and we have to continue.”
Wolves will have both Ruben Neves and Jonny available after returning from suspension, bolstering the options at Lopetegui’s disposal. The former Sevilla boss is wary of the threat posed by the Foxes, though, and will be seeking to deny Leicester the opportunity to pull themselves out of the bottom three.
Julen Lopetegui said: “There is no space to relax, we are fighting. You only achieve your aims when you’ve achieved them – not before, It’s very clear to me. We are fighting very hard to have this possibility and we have to go there with our strength and spirit knowing we respect them a lot. There are plenty of top players there, we know we are going to fight.”
