Crystal Palace and Wolverhampton Wanderers will face each other in the Premier League this week. The match will be held at Selhurst Park in London and is scheduled to kick off at 8:15pm UK time on Tuesday.
Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace are an established club in the Premier League, but they do tend to flirt with relegation. The Eagles ended up 12th in the league table last season after struggling for most of the season, and things seem to be going the same way this time around.
Patrick Vieira’s side are 13th in the Premier League table at the moment with 10 points from nine matches. The London club are only two points above third-from-bottom Southampton, who have played 10 games.
Palace will head into the match against Wolverhampton Wanderers at Selhurst Park in London on the back of a goalless draw with Leicester City away from home at the King Power Stadium in the Premier League. It followed a 2-1 victory over Leeds United at home in the league.
Team News:
Will Hughes remains out with a virus for Crystal Palace, with Chris Richards and Nathan Ferguson among the players still injured.
Wolverhampton Wanderers
Like Crystal Palace, Wolverhampton Wanderers are an established club in the Premier League and were playing in the UEFA Europa League not so long ago. However, things are not going well for Wolves, who are still without a permanent manager following the sacking of Bruno Lage.
Wolves are 17th in the Premier League table at the moment with nine points from 10 matches, a point above the relegation zone. The Wanderers have some wonderful players such as Ruben Neves, Jose Sa and Diego Costa, but as a team they are struggling this season.
However, there have been some encouraging signs of late. The Wanderers got the better of Nottingham Forest 1-0 at home in the Premier League. It was a very good win for Wolves, although their performance could have been better.
Team News:
Nathan Collins is available for Wolverhampton Wanderers after completing a suspension for his dismissal against Manchester City. Goalkeeper Jose Sa is being monitored on a game-by-game basis.
Key Factors to Consider:
- Crystal Palace have won 1 of their last 5 Premier League matches.
- Wolverhampton Wanderers have won 2 of their last 5 Premier League matches.
- Crystal Palace have drawn 3 of their last 5 Premier League games.
- Wolverhampton Wanderers have scored 4 goals in 10 Premier League games.
- Crystal Palace have conceded 12 goals in 9 Premier League matches.
Conclusion
Both Crystal Palace and Wolverhampton Wanderers are not having the best of times, and it is unlikely that there will be too many goals in this game. Selhurst Park is a tough place for any team to win at, and the match in London this week is likely to end in a draw.
