Wolverhampton Wanderers and Crystal Palace have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Premier League.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
Wolverhampton Wanderers form and stats
1 victory, 1 draw and 1 defeat. That’s what Wolverhampton Wanderers have to build on here at Molineux Stadium in the Premier League.
Wolves drew their last game, also a home match. Newcastle United (placed 14th) was the opponent, 1-1 the score. A strong away win before that one, visiting Leeds United and winning 1-0.
The hosts are modest favourites in this match, with the bookmakers estimating the chance of a home win at about 50% +- five percent. It's interesting to look at how Wolves have performed under similar circumstances, so here are some numbers: When modest favourites like this (we found eight games) they have won four times, drawn four and lost zero.
Wolverhampton Wanderers are certainly not overdoing their scoring at home in league matches, having created 3 goals in 3 games. 4 goals have been conceded.
Crystal Palace form and stats
Crystal Palace have six points from their first three away games in the Premier League, meaning two victories and a loss.
Crystal play their second away game in a row, but can be confident going into this one after the 2-1 victory visiting Fulham (placed 20th). Ahead of that game was the 1-1 draw at home against Brighton & Hove Albion.
We have checked recent matches where Crystal have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those four games were three victories, one draw and zero defeats.
Crystal Palace are not goal shy away from home in the league, finding the net 5 times in 3 away games so far. Crystal Palace have conceded 6 goals in these games.
Head 2 Head
Numbers for the last ten meetings between these two teams are: four wins for Wolves, two draws and four wins for Crystal Palace. Over 2,5 goals: five times; under 2,5 goals: five games.Top Goalscorers
