Wolves have struggled for consistency but have a total of 10 points from six matches has left them in ninth spot in the table, only three points off leaders Everton.

Wolves will view Friday’s clash with Palace as the ideal opportunity to return to winning ways, considering that three of their next five in the Premier League are against Leicester City, Arsenal and Liverpool.
