On Sunday Wolves welcome Burnley to Molineux.
Since returning to the Premier League Wolves have played Burnley on 5 occasions. Only 1 of those games has resulted in a win for Nuno’s side with 2 losses and 2 draws.

In the reverse fixture in December Burnley ran out 2-1 winners. The only high point of the game from a Wolves perspective was that it allowed Fabio Silva to score his first goal for the club, albeit from the penalty spot.

The other interesting thing about that game though is that Wolves played with Jimenez, Jonny and Boly all unavailable through injury, this time it is Jimenez, Jonny and Neto. In the starting 11 that day were Owen Otasowie and Max Kilman and Wolves played without a striker until the 60th minute when Silva replaced Otasowie.

Burnley manager Sean Dyche is the longest serving manager currently in the Premier league. He has held the post since October 2012 and has a win percentage of 37.33%.
Nuno Espirito Santo has been Wolves manager since May 2017 and is currently the 4th longest serving in the league. His win percentage is 49.72%

Burnley go into this game on the back of a 3-1 defeat by Manchester United at Old Trafford. Wolves are looking for 3 wins in a row having beaten Fulham and Sheffield United in their previous two games.
