Burnley gave their chances of surviving a huge shot in the arm with a win over Southampton on Thursday and they may just have an opportunity to boost them further against Wolves. The scenario hinges largely on the likelihood of Everton losing against Liverpool which on the eye test is almost nailed on. If Burnley can catch a Wolves side that have not played in 16 days cold and snatch three points then they sneak into the last safe spot and will stay there if Everton do not win the Merseyside derby. Everton did beat Liverpool at Anfield last season, though, so Burnley will be watching between their fingers regardless of form. Graham Searles
