Late night update: Tim Spiers drops five-word injury news on double blow for Wolves

Wolves pair Daniel Podence and Leander Dendoncker should be fit for the Premier League clash with Burnley, reliable journalist Tim Spiers has confirmed.

Bruno Lage’s side returned to action on Friday evening, making the trip to Newcastle United for another important game.

Wolves produced a hugely forgettable performance, however, mustering just two shots on target and falling to a 1-0 defeat at St James’ Park.

It was a big blow in the race for European football this season and Wanderers were without both Podence (foot) and Dendoncker (illness), which didn’t help their cause.

Taking to Twitter late after the game on Friday, Spiers provided a positive five-word update, saying the Wolves duo should return for the trip to Burnley on April 24th:

“Should be fine for Burnley.”

There is now a two-week break for Lage and his players to stew over a bitterly disappointing result, as their chances of playing in the Europa League next season took a big hit.

The Burnley clash now becomes a must-win game for Wanderers, who need a strong end to the season if they are to clinch a place in Europe.

Sean Dyche’s side are facing a massive relegation battle and will make life tough for Wolves, so if they produce another display like the Newcastle one, it could be a bad day at the office once more.
