    Burnley manager Sean Dyche on Sky Sports: "Wolves are a good outfit and have been for a number of seasons now. Really we have to focus on oursleves and influence the game in our favour.

    "I believe in the team. We have created chances and not put them away which is unusual for us. I believe the stats will start paying us back and it will come around.

    "The strikers here are aware that they haven't scored enough, believe you me. We are beginning to find a consitency in our performances.

    "If they play five at the back we have generally done well against it - we beat Wolves 2-0 in my first ever game here so that would do nicely again."
