    Here come the Burnley supporters, who will likely recognise West Brom as one of their team's bogey sides - the Clarets have not beaten West Brom at The Hawthorns since December 1969.

    Burnley manager Sean Dyche speaking to Sky Sports: "We've had limited time to work with the team because the changes we've made are all late changes. But the players that have come in are all looking forward to it. We are looking to perform week in week out and build on our performances."

    West Brom manager Alan Irvine, speaking to Sky Sports: "It would have been very difficult to change the team after the win against Tottenham. The response from the players has been fantastic and it's obviously been great to get two wins in the last few days. Now the aim is to get back-to-back Premier League wins."

    West Brom will be looking to young striker Saido Berahino for goals this afternoon, and the 21-year-old says he is feeling good about his game after hitting "rock bottom" last season.

    "I felt alone," reflected Berahino. "There was no-one I could go to in the club and get advice from.

    "Things have changed as last season I don't think the seniors knew who I was. Now we've got that relationship, they understand me and I understand them.

    "You mature quicker, playing a man's game, you have the senior lads that help you along with it as well. I would say maybe I learned that the harsh way last season. But I don't regret any of it, it's made me who I am now so I just look forward."

    "Burnley will try to do what West Brom did when they won at Tottenham last week. They'll sit off and try to be defensively well organised. The onus is on West Brom and that's a different mindset to last week."

    Burnley:, external Only five clubs have recorded four goalless draws in a row in the top flight, including West Brom in 1983.

    Will the Clarets make it six clubs? Their last three matches have all ended goalless and with both Burnley and West Brom managing just four league goals between them this season, the chances of another 0-0 must be high.

    "West Brom played quite well at Tottenham last week. They had 11 new players this summer - the most of any side. Manager Alan Irvine has had to try to mould them. I saw little signs of recovery last week. They've been described as a yo-yo club, but this is their fifth consecutive season in the top flight."

    What should we expect from this game then? Well, Burnley will be just hoping to get on the scoresheet - they have failed to net in their last five matches. As for West Brom, they are beginning to find some form after a shaky start and they will expect to register another three points today.

    More from Reading manager Nigel Adkins, speaking to Sky Sports: "We are going to score goals, but we have to have better control of the football. (We can achieve that) by working hard on the training ground.

    "We have players coming back like Danny Guthrie, and it was important for him today. We played against a good side in Wolves. Give them a lot of credit. There is a very positive mood around the club, Hope Akpan has just been called up to the Nigeria team. And I thought it was a good game of football."

    Reading manager Nigel Adkins, speaking to Sky Sports: "We have played against a good side in Wolves. They are good in possession and had only conceded three goals this season. We didn't have control of the game, and they probably had too much. For me we responded well to get back in the game having gone behind. Credit to the players."

    BBC Match of the Day commentator at The Hawthorns

    "This is a game that West Brom will be expected to win, and if they do, it will be a victory of the type that can help avoid the nervous dramas they experienced at the end of last season.

    "Burnley, though, will look at West Brom's recent home league record that shows only two wins in this calendar year, and arrive at The Hawthorns with hopes high they can get their first win back in the big time.

    "They've already shown they will be well organised and have a solid foundation but have really struggled in front of goal. Scott Arfield's strike against Chelsea remains their only goal and unless that improves, it could be a very long season for the Clarets."

    Former Wolves and Reading midfielder Mick Gooding on BBC Radio Berkshire: "What with Wolves' goals against and goals scored I don't think anyone would have predicted a 3-3.

    "Kenny Jackett will be delighted his team has scored three, but at 3-2 up Wolves had a short corner and got it wrong. They were trying to play the clock down but within a minute Reading had gone down the other end and scored the equaliser. They should have gone for the fourth because they were in the ascendancy. But it was a great game of football."

  19. Postpublished at 15:18 British Summer Time 28 September 2014

    A fair result? Just about... Wolves shaded possession with 53% but Reading had more shots on goal - 13 to the visitors' 10.

    A six-goal thriller comes to an end. Wolves miss the chance to draw level with Norwich at the top of the Championship, but they are still third. Reading are into 11th.
