Burnley's difficult run at Turf Moor continued as they fell to a 2-1 defeat against Wolves, marking 21 consecutive home matches without a victory. The result ensures the Clarets' winless streak at home will surpass the one-year mark.

César Peixoto’s side recovered from an initial deficit to secure the win. The decisive moment arrived in the 72nd minute, shortly after Tawanda Chirewa replaced Sean Neave. Following a heavy touch from Igor Julio, Mateus Mané gained possession and played the ball to Chirewa. The 23-year-old Zimbabwe international fired an angled shot that bypassed Gregoire Coudert to find the back of the net.
