Thomas Frank is expecting ‘a very difficult game’ against Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday.
Wolves sit 19th in the Premier League table following a 4-0 defeat to Leicester City last Sunday, but Frank believes that the Midlands club have deserved more points from their recent performances.
“They also need to bounce back and they have impressive players who want to do their best,” said Frank.
“I expect a very difficult game. I look at their individual quality and think ‘wow, there are some good players in that team’.
“If you look at their last three or four performances, I think they deserved to score more goals and get more points.
“The midfield three of [João] Moutinho, [Rúben] Neves and [Matheus] Nunes is just so high quality.
“There’s a reason why Moutinho played where he did across his career and why Neves is constantly linked to bigger clubs. Nunes is such a talented player. Also [Diego] Costa up front, we can’t underestimate his qualities.”

Brentford also head into Saturday’s game following a 4-0 loss, but Frank insisted that his side have put the defeat at Villa behind them.
“It was a tough 24 hours,” he said, “I never experienced in my career being down three after 15 minutes.
“It’s football, it happens. This group of players have a remarkable mentality, and they are very committed to bouncing back.
“I try my very best to be level, whether we’ve won 4-0 against Man United or lost 4-0 against Aston Villa. We need to be consistent in the ways that we do things.
“We need to move on; we can’t get stuck in the past. We learnt from it, react and move forward. It’s the only way.”
