Wolverhampton Wanderers are set to take on Burnley
Wolves have been flying in the Premier League and currently sit in seventh following their promotion from the Championship last season. Burnley, on the other hand, are not doing nearly as well as they had hoped following their excellent 2018/18 campaign and sit just two points above the relegation zone in 17th.

Recent Form
Wolves are coming off a big FA Cup win against Manchester United which sent them to the semi-finals of the competition. The Wanderers have only lost one time in their previous 12 matches with a 1-0 loss to bottom feeders Huddersfield being the only blunder since mid-January.
Burnley will be looking to break a streak of four straight defeats and have not won a match since they beat Tottenham 2-1 at the end of February. Three points from this match would be a big boost in the Clarets' hopes of staying in the Premier League for another season.
Here's how each team has fared in their previous five fixtures.
| Burnley | Wolves |
| Burnley 1-2 Leicester City (16/03) | Wolves 2-1 Manchester United (16/03) |
| Liverpool 4-2 Burnley (10/03) | Chelsea 1-1 Wolves (10/03) |
| Burnley 1-3 Crystal Palace (02/03) | Wolves 2-0 Cardiff City (02/03) |
| Newcastle 2-0 Burnley (26/02) | Huddersfield 1-0 Wolves (26/02) |
| Burnley 2-1 Tottenham (23/02) | Bournemouth 1-1 Wolves (23/02) |
Prediction
Although it does not look likely Wolves will be able to catch any of the current top six, the players are still going to fight for a spot in Europe next season. This match against Burnley will be a fixture the squad believes they can take all three points from and climb a bit closer to a spot in next season's Europa League.
Burnley haven't been able to slow down many teams during their recent run of matches and Wolves have a few players in fine goalscoring form. Expect it to be a hard-fought match, but Wolves should get the best of Burnley's shaky defence and capitalise on any mistakes they may make.
Prediction: Burnley 1-3 Wolverhampton
