Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Burnley

, KO: 19:30 Dec 5, 2023, Molineux
Burnley

WOLVES welcome a Burnley side who must be on a high on Tuesday when the sides clash at Molineux.

The hosts ended up giving Arsenal a real fright after being blown away in the first half at the Emirates, They clung on and a late goal from Matheus Cunha ended up making it a nervy last few minutes in an eventual 2-1 defeat in London.

They've now lost their last three away games by one goal and that must be a source of frustration among the Old Gold's faithful.

But Burnley produced surely their performance of the season when they blew away fellow relegation candidates Sheffield United in a 5-0 win at Turf Moor.

Admittedly, the Blades – who look increasingly out of their depth – didn't help their cause when former Scotland striker Oli McBurnie was sent off before the break, but it was still an impressive win.

It was much-needed too after a horror run for Vincent Kompany's team that saw them lose seven matches in a row with six of them in the Premier League.

They are eight points behind their hosts and still in a precarious position in the relegation zone.

How the bookies view it

Wolves are odds-on across the board but only just. They can be backed at 20/23 at BetVictor.

Burnley are 3/1 with bet365 and the draw is 13/5 with Paddy Power.

Recent head to heads

Wolves have a surprisingly poor record in this fixture – they haven't defeated Burnley in their last seven meetings, although three of these were draws.

Players to watch

Matheus Cunha's goal in London at the weekend was his fourth of the season and was the second game in a row he's found the target. The Brazilian is 2/1 to score anytime on Tuesday with bet365.

Burnley had five different scorers on Saturday and it was Jay Rodriguez who set them on their way with a goal inside 15 seconds for the perfect start. It was also his second game in a row where he has scored and he is 7/2 to score anytime with Coral.

Anything else catch the eye?

Burnley may have scored five at the weekend against ten-man Sheffield United, but Wolves away is a different proposition and the hosts have to be backed here at almost evens.

They went toe-for-toe with Arsenal and stayed in the game and they have been unlucky recently, but they've all been away from home.

But look at their last four home games and a different story emerges. They have defeated Manchester City and Spurs and drawn with high-flying Aston Villa and Newcastle United. And Burnley were on an awful run previously.

Wolves' last 12 games have seen both teams to score so there should be entertainment here. Go for both teams to score and a home win at 11/4 with bet365.
