Zeki Fryers has said that it will be "difficult to win" when Tottenham Hotspur face Stoke City at the Britannia Stadium this weekend.

Spurs have recovered from a run of three defeats in four matches last month to win two of their last three outings in the Premier League, but face a Stoke side who have lost just twice at home this season on Saturday.

The defender told the club's website: "Obviously we conceded in the first half against Fulham in a disappointing manner but overall we were strong and stable as a team.

"Now we go to Stoke, who are a good side. They're a strong team and I know from watching other clubs go there that it's difficult to win there.

"They make it hard for opposing teams so we've got a big challenge at the weekend and we're looking forward to it."

Spurs currently sit sixth in the Premier League table, while Stoke are 10th.
