In a mid week match on Wednesday Dec 1st, in week 14, Wolverhampton Wanderers plays host to Burnley in a clash of the Premier League. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy and cold day, with daytime temperatures of only 4 degrees, making for an unpleasant day. Wolverhampton Wanderers sits at 6th place in the tables. In their last match they recorded a 0-0 scoreless draw against Norwich City. Neither Norwich City nor Wolverhampton Wanderers could manage to put one past the goalie. They had 15 and 5 shots on net respectively, but no one could score, and the match ended in a scoreless draw,. With 20 points in their last 10 matches Wolverhampton Wanderers should be reasonably happy with their performance, while in their last match, Burnley recorded a 3-3 draw against Crystal Palace. Christian Benteke scored the first goal for Crystal Palace in the 8th minute, then in the 19th minute, Ashley Westwood sent in a beautiful pass which was converted by Ben Mee . They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having lost 3 of their last 10.
This match will be the first time these two teams face eachother this season. Last season Burnley won the head to head battle with 2 wins.
