Wolves will look to continue their strong run of form

Wolves host Burnley at Molineux Stadium in the Premier League on Wednesday, with both sides having contrasting seasons so far.

Wolves are currently sixth in the league, three points off the top four. Bruno Lage's side have been in great form of late, having lost only two of their last 10 games across all competitions. They will look to continue their form with a win against Burnley.

Burnley, on the other hand, have been woeful this season. Sean Dyche's side are currently 18th in the table and have only managed one win so far this campaign. They will hope to kickstart their season with a win against Wolves on Wednesday.

It will be a great opportunity for Wolves to climb up the table with a win against a poor Burnley side on Wednesday.

Burnley will be without James Tarkowski and Ashley Westwood due to suspension. Meanwhile, Ashley Barnes is unavailable due to injury.

Wolves should have enough firepower up front to be able to win the game comfortably.
