Doyle will aim to help Wolves defeat Arsenal on Saturday before playing in the Republic of Ireland's two-legged World Cup play-off against France, then facing top-of-the-table Chelsea on November 21.
Wolves go into the game at Molineux following a run of three draws and Doyle feels they can go one better against Arsene Wenger’s side, whose away form hasn’t been as impressive as performances at the Emirates Stadium.
"Everyone is beating everyone this year, it is up and down, small teams are beating big teams. That is what makes it exciting. We feel we can do that on Saturday," he told skysports.com.
While he didn’t voice similar confidence when discussing his country’s clash with the 1998 World Cup winners, Doyle is clearly looking forward to the challenge.
"It is the reason you play football,” he added. “Anyone who plays football and was offered that in their next four games would probably wet themselves with excitement.
"I take it for granted sometimes. In those four games you probably play against some of the best players in the world."
