Jermain Defoe is confident that Tottenham Hotspur's new-look side can go from strength to strength and maintain their good start to the season by claiming three points at Cardiff City on Sunday.
Spurs, who added seven new players to their first team this summer, have scored 15 goals and conceded just one in their opening seven games of the campaign.
That run of form has seen the White Hart Lane outfit assert themselves as one of the early favourites to win the Europa League.
It has also propelled them to third place in the Premier League table with nine points from a possible 12.
Defoe, who netted a brace in Thursday night's 3-0 win over Tromso, expects his side to be tested in South Wales.
"Cardiff will be tough, they have good players," Defoe told Tottenham's official website. "No game is easy in the Premier League, it gets better and better and harder and harder every season."
He added: "We're confident so hopefully we'll go there and continue doing what we're doing. The new players have been great and if we go there and win that game, it will be fantastic."
Spurs and Cardiff have only met three times since the turn of the millennium, with the London side winning two and drawing one.
