Is Crystal Palace vs Wolves on TV today? Kick-off time, channel and how to watch Premier League fixture
Crystal Palace will be looking to exact a measure of revenge on Wolverhampton Wanderers this weekend, as the two sides meet in the Premier League. Neither have been in good form in the top flight, but earlier in January Wolves knocked Palace out of the FA Cup with a narrow victory and a stunning goal from Adama Traore.
That victory, plus another in the cup against Chorley, are Wolves’ only wins since mid-December, with a run of four defeats and three draws in their last seven league fixtures. Last time out they did put up a better fight, though, holding Chelsea to a 0-0 draw and handing a debut to new loan signing Willian Jose off the bench.
Palace have their own new forward, too, with Jean-Philippe Mateta ready to feature after his switch from Mainz.

Palace lost to West Ham in their last outing and have won just once in their last 10 across all competitions, with Roy Hodgson hoping for a significant improvement in fortunes. His side sit 14th in the table, one place behind opponents Wolves due to goal difference – with Palace having the second-worst defence in the entire league.

What is the team news?
Palace are still missing a host of defensive options, with James Tomkins, Mamadou Sakho, Martin Kelly and Nathan Ferguson all out, as well as goalkeeper Wayne Hennessey. Jeffrey Schlupp is also injured, but Jean-Philippe Mateta should be involved after resolving visa issues.
Wolves are without long-term absentees Jonny and Raul Jimenez, while Marcal is also sidelined. Rayan Ait-Nouri went off injured against Chelsea and is a doubt.
Predicted line-ups
PAL: Guaita; Ward, Kouyate, Cahill, Mitchell; Townsend, McArthur, Milivojevic, Eze; Zaha, Benteke
WOL: Patricio; Boly, Coady, Kilman; Hoever, Dendoncker, Neves, Semedo; Adama, Jose, Neto
Odds
Palace – 21/10
Draw – 11/5
Wolves – 31/18
Prediction
A surprisingly open encounter with both teams hoping for the three points could be on show. Maybe one of the new signings will even nick a goal – but Palace could just edge it. Palace 2-1 Wolves.
