Team News

Wolves
Burnley
  • Ivan Cavaleiro is still the only injury concern for newly-promoted Wolves.
  • Nuno has plenty of options now his summer signings have had the international break to get up to speed with the rest of their teammates.
  • Adama Traoré has only made three substitute appearances for new side Wolves but has looked dangerous in all of them. He will continue to push for a full Wolves debut here.
  • Burnley will need to check on the fitness of Ben Gibson and Stephen Ward ahead of Sunday's trip to Wolves.
  • Robbie Brady is expected to miss out once again, with Nick Pope, Steven Defour and Johann Berg Gudmundsson also sidelined.
  • Dwight McNeil started against former club Manchester United before the international break and the 18-year-old will hope to keep his place here.
  • Ashley Barnes and Chris Wood are in competition for a starting berth in attack for Sean Dyche's side.

Prediction

  • Wolves have taken five points from their opening four matches. It's not a bad return but the newly-promoted side have played better than that.
  • Burnley have endured a torrid season so far. The Clarets, dumped out of the Europa League, have lost three of their opening four matches.
  • The last two meetings between the two sides have ended as a draw, but Wolves will hope to pick up another victory here.

  • I do not understand why Traore can't start at striker.

  • 30 shots - 7. Next level one way traffic for a newly promoted side. This could have been messy.

  • Neves is real gem

  • anyone thing burnley are great value here? the gap between these sides is not that great.

  • @angelo44 Burnley are going down unless they stop feeling sorry for themselves. They need to realise every game they are the underdog. They must grind and work harder for results.

  • Home 1-0

  • 2-1. Raul Jimenez and Neves (penalty or free kick). Wood or Barnes for Burnley.

  • Burnley really need to sort their leaking of goals asap

  • 0-1 :)
