Hello and welcome to Eurosport's LIVE text commentary of the Premier League clash between Burnley and Wolves. Nuno Espirito Santo's side suffered a blow to their hopes of securing Champions League football with the news that Manchester City's European ban has been overturned. Wolves need to close a four-point gap between themselves and Leicester with just three games left and hope they finish above Manchester United. A tall order. Tonight's match against Burnley is a must-win, but Sean Dyche's side still have their eyes on a Europa League spot. It sure is the business end of the season.

36'
Bardsley surrenders possession to Wolves. Podence breaks forward dangerously through the middle and has options either side, but he takes a touch too many and then tries an ambitious back-heel only to find a Burnley player.

Jimenez is flagged offside as he pounces on a loose ball after Jota was closed down.
32'
That sudden burst of pace from Traore causes Burnley more problems as he drives to the by-line. His chipped cross is decent but the hosts clear.
31'
Pieters has gone to left back and Gudmundsson is playing at right wing.

Burnley sub: Johann Berg Gudmundsson makes way for Taylor, who cannot continue and that may spell the end of his season.

Taylor has gone down with no one near him - and that is always a concern. The Burnley medics appear to be looking at his knee.

The drinks break hasn't distracted Burnley too much as they deal with the corner delivery effectively.
24'
The referee doesn't allow the corner to be taken just now - instead it's time for a drinks break. What a bizarre time to stop play.
23'
The game is really opening up, as Burnley launch an attack on the break. The ball is played long and the bits and pieces fall to Woods. His shot is blocked by his own team mate Rodriguez but the hosts force a corner of their own. McNeil delivers and Saiss is there to clear.
22'
Moutinho's delivery is begging to be headed in but Taylor intervenes with a wonderful defensive header. Burnley have yet another corner to defend.
21'
Podence fires a shot straight at Long. The ball is switched wide to Traore whose teasing cross is pushed behind by Pope for another Wolves corner.
19'
That looks like the Traore of old. Burnley double up on the Wolves' wideman but he has too much pace for both Pieters and Taylor. Unfortunately, for Wolves, his touch is too heavy and the ball rolls out for a Burnley goal-kick.
18'
Burnley are enjoying a spell of possession now. This is their best spell of the game.
16'
McNeil buys a free-kick from Podence on the left flank. The delivery is sent into the packed Wolves penalty area but Patricio rises highest to pluck the ball out of the air.
14'
Burnley are struggling to get out at the moment. They need some possession to take the pressure off.

Chance! Moutinho's corner delivery is whipped to the near post where Saiss heads over from point-blank range. Not sure how much he knew about it. The ball seemed to hit the back of his head.
12'
Vinagre puts the accelerator down and speeds past Taylor, but the Burnley defender does well to recover by blocking his cross for another Wolves corner.

Jota sees his shot blocked but again Burnley struggle to clear. Traore drives down the right flank and stands up a cross for Jimenez whose cushioned header is held by Pope.
9'
Jota turns sharply and delivers a delicious cross to the far post. No one in Wolves colours is there to contest it, but Taylor is taking no chances and heads behind for a corner.
8'
McNeil looks to have won the ball from Traore in a dangerous midfield area - but Mike Dean signals for a free-kick.
