Wolves vs Burnley
Wolves have had a rough patch lately, losing several games before snapping out of it with back-to-back wins, so they come in feeling better about themselves. Burnley, on the other hand, have been the steadier side, with a couple of wins and draws mixed in, though they did take a heavy loss earlier in the season. Their recent meetings have mostly been tight, low-scoring games, with a couple of them ending level, so there's no sign of these two teams producing a goalfest when they meet.
This looks like a close contest between two fairly evenly matched sides, and the history between them backs that up, with the most recent game being decided by a single goal. Given Burnley's slightly more reliable run of results compared to Wolves' recent slump, Burnley look the more likely to edge it, though a draw is also very much in play.
