Doyle urges Wolves to hold form for West Ham clash

Kevin Doyle has called on Wolves to repeat their performance at Aston Villa for tonight's clash with West Ham United.

Wolves go into the relegation six-pointer on the back of an impressive 2-2 draw at Villa Park.

Republic of Ireland international Doyle, who will again lead the attack as a lone striker in Mick McCarthy's 4-5-1 formation, said: "There is no point us putting in such a good performance against Villa and going to a team who are in the same sort of position as ourselves and not putting in a similar performance.

"We have to get something from the game. In the past we have played well against the better teams and the following match struggled against lesser teams. We have to make amends against West Ham.

"We know that West Ham will be fancying the win. But we have confidence in ourselves and we can see ourselves getting closer and closer to a safe position in the Premiership.

"We are far from being safe at the moment but every point is vital and if we can get something out of the West Ham game it will be another real bonus."
