Wolves vs Burnley Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League

Prediction published on 05/12/2023, 06:18  by Steve Ashfield in Premier League Predictions

Wolverhampton Wanderers host Burnley aiming to avoid a third straight Premier League defeat. The home side are 13th in the table with their opponents one from bottom and eight points behind them. Wolves conceded two early goals at Arsenal on Saturday and did well to only lose the game 2-1. That defeat followed a 3-2 loss at Fulham last Monday and they have now lost three successive away league fixtures. They return to Molineux looking to get back on track and are still eight points above the relegation zone. Home form has included that massive victory over Manchester City, one of only two league wins at Molineux this season. The other was an unlikely victory with two late goals giving them a 2-1 win over Tottenham. The other four home league matches have produced two draws and a couple of losses. Their last 11 Premier League games have all seen both teams score.

Burnley still only have Sheffield United below them in the Premier League table. Saturday saw them finally get some home points as they thrashed Sheffield United 5-0. That win has left them still two points from safety but it'd be five but for Everton's ten-point deduction. A win at Wolves could see the Clarets escape the bottom three. They only have four points from six away league fixtures this season. Each of their last three away fixtures have been lost with eight goals conceded. Both teams did get on the scoresheet in the last two on the road. We go for that statistic to come up again on Tuesday.
