Harry Winks believes confidence is high in the Tottenham camp ahead of their first match at Wembley against Chelsea

Harry Winks has been preparing for life at Wembley by training with Tottenham's kiosk staff at their new home.

Spurs will kick off their Premier League campaign at the national stadium on Sunday when they take on rivals Chelsea, and the club have been training volunteers to work at the ground as part of their commitment to employment in the local area.

Midfielder Winks may be more used to serving assists than cups of tea, but he is sure at least the atmosphere will not be lukewarm this weekend.

"It's the best home game you could possibly imagine for Wembley," Winks told Sky Sports News. "The fans are going to be well up for it, we're going to be well up for it - it's going to be a great game to be a part of."

Tottenham struggled to make Wembley a fortress while using the stadium for home ties in the Champions League last season, but Winks is not concerned about being overwhelmed by the occasion.

Tottenham will go from having the smallest pitch in the Premier League to the joint-biggest at Wembley - but how have Spurs fared on bigger pitches?

"We just take it in our stride, we don't focus on previous fixtures," Winks added. "We know our game plan, we know what we need to do and we execute that on any pitch we possible can.

"Wembley is a big pitch, it's good for us in terms of our possession play."
