Wolves suffered a second consecutive Premier League defeat last time out. It was also back-to-back away losses for Bruno Lage’s men. Consequently, they come into this latest round of league fixtures sitting in eighth place on 40 points, and though Wolves have played more games than some of the sides above them it’s only seven points between the Black Country side and Man Utd who are fourth. At home, though, it’s two losses suffered across nine previous outings. During this stretch of games they’ve picked up five wins including their most recent Molineux showdown against Southampton which saw them claim a narrow 2-1 victory.
Crystal Palace meanwhile celebrated a successful passage into this season’s FA Cup quarter-finals. Patrick Vieira’s side dumped Stoke City out to stretch their current unbeaten run in all competitions to three matches. In the league it’s two games unbeaten and one loss suffered across five matches albeit three of these aforementioned matches ended in draws. On the road, they’re on a four-game unbeaten run, last time out they returned home from Watford with a 1-4 success which subsequently ended a three-game run of stalemates.
