Venue (City, Stadium)

Burnley, Turf Moor

Burnley welcome Wolverhampton Wanderers to Turf Moor on Sunday afternoon in a fixture pitting two sides desperate to end miserable winless runs in the Premier League.

The Clarets have failed to win any of their last ten league outings and have lost six of their last seven fixtures, leaving them in dire need of a result.

Wolves arrive in equally wretched form, winless in their last seven Premier League matches and struggling to find any consistency on the road.

The head-to-head overall sits level at two wins apiece with two draws from the last six meetings between the sides.

Burnley vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Talking Points

The card count could prove interesting, with André booked in three of his last four league appearances and Hannibal Mejbri regularly drawing fouls. Both teams don't need a result, but the quality on show may ultimately lead to a messy, cagey affair where neither side can find a way through.

Burnley vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Form

Burnley are in freefall, losing six of their last seven Premier League fixtures. Zian Flemming has been their main threat up front and looks the most likely player to break the deadlock, while Jaidon Anthony has offered a reliable attacking outlet from the left.

Wolves are without a win in seven Premier League matches, a run that has kept them bottom of the table. Their attacking output has dried up and they have looked toothless in recent outings, struggling to create clear-cut chances with any regularity.

Burnley vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Prediction & Best Bets

Best Bets

Under 2.5 Goals at 23/20 with Betway. Neither side has shown anything like reliable attacking form in recent weeks, and six of the last seven home meetings between these two have seen fewer than three goals.

Zian Flemming anytime goalscorer at 11/8 with AK Bets. Flemming is Burnley's biggest goal threat and tops the predicted goalscorer charts, making him the most likely player to find the net on Sunday.

Burnley vs Wolverhampton Wanderers Bet Builder

This four-leg bet builder combines Under 2.5 Goals with Zian Flemming and Jaidon Anthony each to register a shot on target, plus Flemming to commit over 1.5 fouls.

Under 2.5 Goals is well supported here. Neither Burnley nor Wolves have been able to score with any regularity in recent Premier League outings, and the defensive solidity across both squads makes a low-scoring outcome the most plausible result.

Flemming to have a shot on target looks a strong pick. He has been on target in seven of his last ten Premier League appearances and is Burnley's main attacking outlet going forward.

Anthony has an equally impressive record for shots on target, hitting the mark in seven of his last ten league appearances. He remains direct and involved in the final third.

Flemming to commit over 1.5 fouls rounds off the selection. He has picked up two or more fouls in seven of his last eight league matches, making this the most statistically supported leg.

At the time of writing, this bet builder pays a best price of 8/1 and is as short as 9/2 elsewhere. That's a difference in potential winnings of £35 from best to worst price.
