Burnley aim to extend their unbeaten run to four games when they host Wolverhampton Wanderers at Turf Moor on Friday night. The Championship fixture sees the Clarets, currently 21st with eight points from ten games, face a Wolves side that has lost its last two matches.
Nicky Hayen's side were pegged back to a 2-2 draw by Charlton Athletic last time out but have taken five points from their last three outings. "To be fair has steadied the ship a bit with the Clarets unbeaten in three matches," said manager Nicky Hayen.
Burnley will likely be without defender Anel Ahmedhodzic after he suffered an injury against Charlton. Forward Dastan Satpaev could return to the squad, however, providing a potential boost. Wolves have their own injury concerns, with Yerson Mosquera, Rodrigo Gomes and Raul Jimenez all sidelined.
The Clarets' form has improved after a difficult start to life back in the Championship. Their recent sequence reads draw, win, draw, loss, draw, giving them a record of one win, five draws and four losses this season. You can review their full schedule on our fixtures page.
Burnley have a strong historical record in this fixture at Turf Moor, unbeaten in their last eight home games against Wolves. The last meeting between the sides ended in a 1-1 draw back in May. With both teams seeking a result to improve their league standing, Friday's match is a significant one. The Clarets will be looking to their recent scorers like Jacob Bruun Larsen and Largie Ramazani to make the difference.
