Match Facts

  • Wolves have won just one of their last nine Premier League games against Burnley (D4 L4), a 1-0 win in their last home meeting in December 2023.

  • Burnley’s first two Premier League games against Wolves ended in 2-0 and 2-1 defeats. Since then, they’ve not conceded more than once in any of their 10 meetings with them (6 goals conceded).

  • Wolves are the only team without a Premier League win this season (D2 L6) and for a second consecutive season have won none of their first eight games. They also failed to win their ninth match of 2024-25, with Bury in 1904-05/1905-06 and Sunderland in 2015-16/2016-17 the only sides to do this in back-to-back top-flight seasons.

  • Both of Burnley’s Premier League wins this season have come against their fellow promoted clubs, beating both Sunderland and Leeds 2-0 at Turf Moor. The Clarets have won just two of their last 44 top-flight games against non-newly promoted sides (D10 L32) and won none of their last 14 (D5 L9).

  • Wolves have now gone 25 Premier League matches without a victory in the months of May, August, September and October combined (D6 L19) since a 2-1 away win at Bournemouth back in October 2023. Across their last two seasons, they are winless in all 21 games played in these months (D5 L16).

  • In the Premier League this season, Burnley rank bottom for average possession (34.7%), successful passes (1,908), passing accuracy (75.7%), shots attempted (60), touches in the opposition box (111) and expected goals (5.4), and have played the highest percentage of their passes long (17%).

  • In March and April 2025, Wolves won the most points of any Premier League side (19 – W6 D1), but, since May, they’ve won seven fewer points than any other ever-present team (3 – D3 L9). Wolves are the only side in English top-flight history to follow up a six-game winning run with 12 winless matches.

  • Burnley manager Scott Parker has lost all three of his Premier League matches against Wolves, losing all three games by a 1-0 scoreline (one in May 2019, both games in 2020-21). They’re one of four sides he’s faced in the competition and not picked up a point against, along with Man City (L5), Chelsea (L3) and Watford (L1).

  • Wolverhampton Wanderers have used just one English player in the Premier League this season, with goalkeeper Sam Johnstone playing four times, the fewest Englishmen to play for a club in the division in 2025-26. Only 23.7% of the players Wolves have ever used in the Premier League have been English (37/156), the second-lowest ratio of any side to feature 100+ players, ahead only of Fulham (22.3%).

  • Burnley’s Lesley Ugochukwu has netted in each of his last two Premier League appearances, having only scored once in his first 43 games in the competition. With his goal on MD8, he was the first player with the initials LU to score against Leeds United in the Premier League.
