Crystal Palace welcome Wolves to Selhurst Park this weekend looking to quickly move on from their capitulation against Burnley last time out in the Premier League<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Oliver Glasner’s side sit in 13th place with 32 points, but will be eyeing a win against rock-bottom Wolves to dissolve any lingering fears of being dragged into a relegation battle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wolves, meanwhile, secured a point against EPL leaders Arsenal last time out despite being two-goals down. That said, the comeback was probably more telling of the Gunners’ fragility than Wolves’ chances of a resurgence. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Season Form & Standings<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The 2025-26 Premier League Standings paint a stark picture for Wolves, who sit bottom with just one win in 26 matches and a daunting -32 goal differential. Crystal Palace have steadied their campaign, positioned in mid-table thanks to improved attacking output and defensive stability. Both teams exited domestic cups early, so their league fortunes are pivotal for the rest of the season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
