Vitor Pereira’s men are the only side left in the Premier League yet to taste victory so far this season, leaving them bottom of the table on just two points.
With Burnley sitting five points clear, a win for the Clarets would create a healthy buffer, even at this early stage of the season.
Scott Parker, however, is refusing to get drawn into Wolves’ early woes.
“We're really early in the season and to be quite honest with you, it's all about our focus, it's just on us and that sounds cliche, but that's the way it is really,” he said.

Parker, however, expects the Wolves chief to turn things around.
“He's a top coach, which we see last year and certainly you see elements this year. They’ve changed shape a little bit,” he added.
“He's in a situation at this present moment in time but he'll be sitting there knowing that he's two positive results away, which can happen in a space of 10 days.
“It can all change with everything being a bit quieter on his side. We all sit in a position knowing that that's the role we live in.”
