PREM: Wolves 1-0 Burnley
Raul Jimenez's second-half goal earned Wolves the points
Burnley are still without a Premier League win this season after Raul Jimenez's second-half goal earned Wolves a 1-0 victory at Molineux.
The Mexico forward struck the winner in the 61st minute to seal a second straight top-flight victory and one that boss Nuno Espirito Santo will feel his side deserved after Burnley goalkeeper Joe Hart made a string of fine saves to keep his side in the game.
The result sees the home side climb into the top half of the table on eight points, while Burnley have made their worst top-flight start in 90 years and remain in the relegation zone after picking up just one point from their opening five matches.
Hart spoke before the match of his desire to force his way back into England contention and excelled throughout the first half, bravely beating Willy Boly to a Helder Costa cross in the 10th minute before making a pair of vital stops on the half-hour.
An excellent reaction save kept out Jimenez's header with James Tarkowski heading the follow-up effort off the line and Hart then beat Matt Doherty to the ball moments later after his central defender had made another goal-line clearance.
Boly volleyed over the bar as Wolves failed to find the breakthrough their first-half dominance merited and they spurned a glorious chance within a minute of the restart when Jota pounced on Phil Bardsley's error, drew Hart and laid the ball to Jimenez, who blasted past two recovering defenders and over the bar.
However, Hart was finally beaten on 61 minutes thanks to a stylish first-time finish from Jimenez.
Costa slipped Doherty into the right channel and Jimenez met the wing-back's cross with a deft shot across the goalkeeper which went in off the post, giving the home side a deserved lead.
Burnley might have snatched an unlikely equaliser minutes later when substitute Matej Vydra volleyed Johann Berg Gudmundsson's free-kick across goal and Jack Cork was unable to react to tap the ball into an empty yet from a yard.
That was their only real chance of the game and the impressive Doherty spurned another good Wolves opening when he shot wide from near the penalty spot after a one-two with Jimenez
Substitute Leo Bonatini wasted two late chances and Nuno may have been frustrated by his side's inability to kill off a match they dominated, but they are now seven points ahead of a toothless Burnley side who have already played 11 games this campaign and look set for a season of struggle after their early European exit.
