Wolves vs Burnley Prediction & Betting tips
Wolverhampton receives a visit to Burnley from the Molineux on Sunday. The Wolves won 2-3 this week in the Europa League against Torino, but are still waiting for their first victory in the Premier League. Burnley beat Southampton 3-0 in the first league match, but suffered its first defeat last weekend.
Wolverhampton Wanderers:
Wolverhampton was the seasonal surprise of the previous season and the Wolves eventually finished seventh. That seventh place was rewarded with a ticket for European football and Wolverhampton is only one hurdle away from the group stage of the Europa League. After the Wolves had already taken over Crusaders and Pyunik Erevan FC in a European context, Torino won 2-3 on Thursday evening. The money that Wolverhampton can earn in the Europa League is a shadow of the revenues the Wolves receive from the Premier League, but Nuno EspĂrito Santo still wants to qualify for the European tournament.
At Wolverhampton they have a fairly wide selection and the Wolves should normally also be able to compete on two fronts. Only the Premier League is not running as hoped for at Wolverhampton, because the counter is only two points after two games. Last season, as a PhD candidate, Wolverhampton might have been satisfied with that score, but now that is clearly not the case. On the other hand: in the first two games the Wolves grabbed a point against both Leicester City (0-0) and Manchester United (1-1) and looking purely at the opponents is not a bad start.
Burnley:
Burnley started the season well with three points from two games. At least, the expectation is that Burnley will normally have a hard time this season and it is good that The Clarets started the Premier League with a 3-0 win over Southampton. The formation of Sean Dyche alone has not succeeded in continuing that handsome win over Southampton in the second round. Burnley had to visit Arsenal last weekend and The Clarets lost 2-1 at the Emirates Stadium. Remarkably, Dyche faced The Gunners nine times as a coach, and the Burnley coach lost in all those games.
For Burnley, the duel with Wolverhampton will follow on Sunday, which has already won nine league games in its own Molineux. Last season, Burnley lost 1-0 to Wolverhampton, while The Clarets were 2-0 too strong for the Wolves in-house. In that respect, it is difficult to estimate what we can expect from Burnley this weekend, because The Clarets performed well and also easily won from Southampton. However, Arsenal lost, but at the Emirates Stadium Burnley was certainly not played away. Dyche has to compete against Wolverhampton without Steven Defour, Daniel Drinkwater and Robbie Brady. Drinking water rented from Chelsea in particular will be missed at Burnley, as it is normally a potential customer base for Burnley. The midfielder did not play yet for The Clarets, but with his footballing ability is definitely a reinforcement for the formation of Dyche.
