Crystal Palace vs Wolves match preview
After a historic win over Man City in the FA Cup at the weekend, Crystal Palace's attention will turn to the Premier League, with the club quickly returning to their problems and dealing with them in their penultimate game against Wolves.
Oliver Glasner's players may still be riding high after winning their first major trophy in the club's history, as evidenced by the fact they didn't even show up for training at their latest training session.
But coach Oliver Glasner believes that with an optimistic mentality, while the opponent has lost motivation to fight, his team still has enough strength to win. A victory will be a gift of gratitude to the fans when this match is played at home by Crystal Palace.
A raucous Selhurst Park awaits Palace after their FA Cup triumph means the club have secured European football next season. That support alone should give Crystal Palace the confidence to host Wolves tonight.
There are many reasons to believe this. Firstly, Wolves have lost their motivation to fight after being relegated early. They have lost all 2 recent matches, not scoring a single goal, while Palace are still playing with focus, remaining unbeaten in their last 8 matches, winning 5 of them.
Second, Wolves are very afraid of being guests of Crystal Palace. In the last 5 matches at Crystal Palace, Wolves lost all 5. It was only in 2018 that Wolves could witness a win at Crystal Palace.
Form, head-to-head history Crystal Palace vs Wolves
Third, Crystal Palace have had a successful end to their recent campaigns. They have lost just one of their last 12 home games of the season (W8 D3). During that run, Crystal Palace have beaten Arsenal and Tottenham. So taking points from a weaker Wolves side who have no business fighting for them is within reach.
Another factor that favors Crystal Palace in this match is that Wolves are very weak when playing away in London. This season, they have only won 1, in addition to losing 4 of their 6 matches in the English capital, conceding at least 2 goals in each of those matches. Wolves have not kept a clean sheet in any of their last 23 away matches in the capital.
Looking at the above statistics, it is difficult to believe that the visitors will return safely in this match, especially when they lost 7 options in the starting lineup due to injuries and cards.
Crystal Palace vs Wolves predicted lineup
Crystal Palace: Henderson, Richards, Lacroix, Munoz, Hughes, Wharton, Lerma, Mitchell, Sarr, Eze, Mateta.
Wolves: Jose Sa, Doherty, Agbadou, Toti, Semedo, Joao Gomes, Andre, Ait Nouri, Munetsi, Guedes, Cunha.
Score prediction: Crystal Palace 3-1 Wolves
