Burton Albion come to Molineux to take on the Wolves for the first ever time. Burton are adapting to life in their debut season of the second tier of English Football winning two and drawing one of their five games so far.
Match Facts
In four attempts, no Nigel Clough team has ever beaten Wolves. His most recent attempt came as manager of Sheffield United in March 2014.
Wolves are unbeaten in nine successive Championship home games, of which five have ended goalless.
Burton have scored a total of five goals in their two Championship away trips this season. No team has scored more without winning.
Wolves have not conceded a goal from open play at Molineux in the Championship in the last 847 minutes of action, since Adam Reach scored for Preston in February.
Five of Burton's 10 league goals this season have been headers, a joint league-high with Barnsley.

Record signing Ivan Cavaleiro is straight into the starting XI, as is returning centre-back Richard Stearman - Manchester United loanee Cameron Borthwick-Jackson who made 14 appearances for the Premier League giants last term starts at left-back.

Half Time 0-0
Despite the majority of possession going to Wolves, Burton can count themselves unlucky not to be ahead.

Poor first half. Plenty of Ball but lack conviction. Burton seem more direct while we look to pass our way to goal. Ref is shocking.

BJ has been busy, stearman doing his usual, Gladon and Cavaleiro running up and down the pitch but don't look like scoring so far.

For 70 mins Wolves failed to impress,better once Bods and Mason came on but Burton thoroughly deserved a point at least and ould be argued they deserved to win.

Was very poor, we lacked conviction except for just after we scored to make it 1-0. We then started to put some energy into it. Then with around the 85 min mark we decided to slow it down again and it cost us.
