Premier League
Patrick Vieira's players surprised the whole of England last weekend when they won 2-0 at Manchester City, ending their five-match wait for a win. Crystal Palace will be looking to build on that success at home against Wolves, having won their last meeting here in January 1-0. But history is not too kind to them - the last time they won twice in a row against this opponent (in the league) was in 1969! Moreover, the visitors are doing quite well against Palace. Since their return to the elite in 2018, they have won four of their seven matches and kept a clean sheet in all four. They themselves are enjoying a great run of four wins and one draw, which has moved them up to seventh place and their fans can dream of European Cups again. The home fans would also like to see their team a little higher up the table as Palace have lost just two of their opening ten games (2-6-2), the fewest at this stage of the competition since 1996-97. On paper, an evenly-matched game could easily end in a draw on the pitch, and given Palace's six draws this season, that doesn't seem unrealistic.
Prediction:
1st half result or match result - Draw @ 1.65
