Molineux Stadium

Wolverhampton Wanderers will face off against Crystal Palace at the Molineux Stadium in the last game on Saturday. Both teams are struggling this season and find themselves in the bottom half of the table. Crystal Palace came into this with a big win against Tottenham Hotspur in their last game. Mateta’s solitary goal in the 31st minute was enough to get them the 3 points. That has pushed Oliver Glasner’s men to 17th in the League. The Wolves continue to remain 19th with 2 points in 9 games. 1 of those 2 points came in their last game as they held Brighton to a draw at the Amex Stadium. Brighton was 2 to the good in the 85th minute; however, Wolves made a late comeback. Ait-Nouri scored in the 88th minute, with Cunha scoring the equaliser against the run of play in the 3rd minute of injury time.

Facts:

The winner between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Crystal Palace generally tends to win by a big margin at the Molineux Stadium in the Premier League. The winner in each of the last 6 games between the Eagles and the Old Gold has won by a 2-goal cushion. All of Wolves’ three wins have come by a 2-0 scoreline. Palace’s three wins have seen them win 2-0 two times and 3-1 once.
Crystal Palace recently have been dominant when it comes to playing Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League. The Eagles have lost just 1 of their last 6 Premier League games against Wolves. Crystal Palace have won 6 games from these 7. Before these 7 games, Palace had fewer wins with 4 from a total of 20 league games with 10 losses.
Wolverhampton Wanderers are still in search of their first Premier League win of this season. Gary O’Neil’s men have now gone nine games without a win as they drew to Brighton last time out. The Wolves' longest run without a win in their history of top-flight football is 14 games. They achieved this tally way back in 1982/84.
Wolverhampton Wanderers have a massive issue when it comes to defending this season. Their defensive numbers are the worst, as they have conceded 25 goals already this season in 9 games. Only Southampton have conceded more goals than them at this stage with 26 goals. Fulham are tied with them with 25 goals as well.

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Crystal Palace Chance of Winning

The head-to-head record between these two teams does favour Crystal Palace, but the gap between the two is surprisingly quite close. In the last 18 encounters between these two sides in all competitions, Crystal Palace has won 10; 1 game has ended in a draw, with Wolverhampton Wanderers winning 7 games.

The Wolves continue to struggle defensively, and that continues to be their demise this season. This is a very problematic worry for Gary O'Neil, as every solution he has put out has not worked. Even playing a backup has made them very open and vulnerable in terms of transition. If Wolves do not learn to close spaces, then this is just not a worry for this game, but it could also lead to them getting relegated.

Crystal Palace, on the other hand, have got their attack feeling much better as two of their most prolific attackers, Eberechi Eze and Jean Phillipe Mateta, combined to score. This will be a massive psychological boost for the Eagles. Eze and Mateta are Crystal Palace’s best players. Their not being up to scratch has been worrying Palace, but if that changes, then it could be good news for them and bad news for their opponents.

Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Crystal Palace Predictions and Betting Tips

Most of the oddsmakers and betting websites are minorly backing Crystal Palace to continue their unlikely winning form and beat Wolverhampton Wanderers at the Molineux Stadium under the lights on Saturday. Wolverhampton Wanderers go as minor second favourites here as they are yet to win a game in the Premier League. They drew in the last second against a tough opposition in Brighton, but that has not swayed the bookies into making them favourites. Crystal Palace are slightly tipped to win this game as they beat Tottenham Hotspur at home.

No one can deny that Wolverhampton have had one of their worst starts to a Premier League season. When it comes to their best results, both have been draws, and both have come away from home. At the Molineux, they have not accumulated a single point, and that is one of the reasons that the bookies have gone against the home team. The Wolves have played 4 games at the Molineux this season and have lost all of them. The only caveat here is that all of the home games they have played until now were against top teams, including the likes of Manchester City, Liverpool, and Chelsea.

Crystal Palace will go into this game with a massive bounce as they finally got their first win of the season. The Eagles before this were in a pretty similar place to the Wolves, with a lot of inconsistent performances. Crystal Palace’s away record, however, is similar yet slightly better than Wolves’ home record. Oliver Glasner’s men have 1 draw and 3 losses from 4 away games. Their only point came at Stamford Bridge, as they held Chelsea to a 1-1 draw. They have been beaten by the likes of Everton, Brentford, and Nottingham Forest.

Based on the numbers above, these are our tips and predictions for this game. We expect Crystal Palace to win this game by a very fine margin come Saturday at the Molineux Stadium. Our call is for Crystal Palace to get 2 or more goals considering Wolves have conceded 2.26 goals on average in front of their home fans this season. We do, however, expect both teams to find the back of the net, as Wolves have a very good scoring record at home. The Old Gold have scored in each of their 4 home games this season. Crystal Palace, on the other hand, have also not kept a clean sheet in any of their away games this season. We do expect this game to be a high-scoring encounter. Each of the Wolves' 4 home games has seen a total of 2.5 or more goals scored. 2 of Crystal Palace’s 4 away games have seen both teams score a combined tally of more than 2.5 goals. Hence, based on these numbers, we do expect to see some goals at the Molineux; hence, our prediction is for both Crystal Palace and Wolverhampton Wanderers to score 2.5 or more goals on Saturday.

In this game, we will back Matheus Cunha to score as he goes into this game in fantastic form. Matheus Cunha has got a very good scoring record for the Old Gold in the Premier League. The Brazilian striker already has four goals to his name this season. Wolves, however, do not benefit from his scoring. Cunha since his arrival has scored in 15 Premier League games for Wolves but has ended up on the winning side in just 3 of those 15 games with 3 draws and 9 losses. His injury-time winner in the last game also could get Wolves just a draw against Brighton.

We do also predict Wolverhampton Wanderers will go into this game as favourites to get at least one goal in the first half of the game. Wolves this season have scored a total of 3 goals already in their first half from 4 home games in the Premier League. Crystal Palace, on the other hand, have conceded 2 goals from 4 away games in the first half. They have kept a clean sheet in each of their last 2 away games when it comes to the first 45 minutes. Still, we do back Wolves to at least get 1 goal in the first half.

We back Daniel Munoz to make 3 or more tackles in this game on Saturday. The wingback plays a role that makes him attack as well as defend, and hence he does end up a lot of tackles. Munoz averages 3.7 tackles per game already in the Premier League. Hence, as per the closest average, we expect Munoz to make 2 or more tackles in this game.

Our Prediction

Favorites to win

Crystal Palace

The oddsmakers have backed Crystal Palace to win this game at the Molineux Stadium and pile more pressure on Gary O’Neil. Wolves in their last game were fortunate to get a draw thanks to Matheus Cunha. At home, Wolves have been really poor, as they have failed to make a mark in terms of their overall play. Crystal Palace will have momentum on their side as they kept a high-scoring Spurs team at bay. Oliver Glasner will surely go into this thinking that they can keep this Wolves attack quiet. If Crystal Palace can achieve that feat, then we do believe that they will win this game considering Wolves have one of the worst defences in the Premier League. Hence, with all things considered, we will back Crystal Palace to edge this game and win 2-1 on Saturday.
