Before the international break, Wolves suffered a 3-0 heavy defeat to Chelsea to make it their 9th defeat of the season (D2). This result keeps the home side at the bottom of the table and 10 points adrift of Ipswich Town, who are currently 19th. 

Under the new manager, Rob Edwards, the Old Gold will hope to be inspired back to winning ways. Better still, help them end their disappointing run and take the team above the relegation zone.

Crystal Palace has enjoyed a more positive run in the League as the London club is currently 10th on the table with 17 points. The Eagles were held to a goalless draw against Brighton before the break.

Since the visitors have not lost a game in the last four matches in all competitions, facing a winless Wolves side is a great opportunity to get back to winning.

Palace has overwhelmingly dominated the fixtures against Wolves. In the last ten meetings, the visitors had enjoyed 8 wins (D1, L1).

The last five meetings between these two sides saw both teams find the back of the net, and we expect similar energy when they meet again on Saturday.

The home team will be without Matt Doherty and Leon Chiwome, who are both sidelined with knee injuries. However, Rob Edwards will be happy with the return of Emmanuel Agbadou from suspension.

Both Palace captain Marc Guehi and striker Eddie Nketiah will likely not feature in the match against the Wanderers. Oliver Glasner will rely on Ismaïla Sarr, the team's top scorer for both creativity and goals.

Although Crystal Palace were winless in their last match, the situation is even worse for Wolverhampton, who are yet to record a win this season. Their H2H records also make the visitors favourites.

Bettors on LiveScore Bet can stake on Palace to win this fixture comfortably. The goal market is also another option, considering that their last five encounters produced over 2.5 goals.

Prediction: Wolves 1-3 Crystal Palace
