Burnley host Wolves at Turf Moor in the Premier League on Wednesday evening. The Clarets are tenth in the table, four points adrift of the seventh place that is likely to take a team into the Europa League. Wolves look guaranteed of a Europa League spot but have their hopes set on dream Champions League qualification. Currently sixth, they are four points behind Leicester in fourth. They had a good weekend with that win over Everton and none of the sides placed third to fifth winning. Wolves must focus on getting three points against a Burnley team that has only lost one of their last 13 matches. Sean Dyche's side are fresh from ending the winning streak Liverpool had at Anfield, the one that went on for more than a year, with a determined performance in a 1-1 draw.

Unbeaten in their last six matches at home, Burnley have built this run from the foundations of a solid defence and a brilliant goalkeeper. Nick Pope's form is leading England fans to call for installment as number one, the stopper keeping three clean sheets in his last six home appearances. Wolves have dangerous forward players in Jota and Jimenez to name but a few, however, they will have work cut out scoring at Turf Moor. Burnley's last five matches have all featured fewer than three goals and Wolves lost this fixture last season. The last five meetings between these teams have also featured fewer than three goals. Wolves have been among the best away teams in the division, with only three clubs performing better on the road. We would lean towards the visitors as the likelier side to win but feel as though a goal bet is safer. Don't expect this game to feature more than 2.5 goals.
