Wolverhampton vs Crystal Palace Predictions

• Crystal Palace are unbeaten in four games since Roy Hodgson’s return to the club.
• Palace have won their last four meetings with Wolves, scoring exactly twice in each of the last three.
• Eberechi Eze has three goals in his last three appearances.

Wolves not out of the woods yet

Wolves failed to capitalise on a strong start at the King Power Stadium on Saturday as they fell to a 2-1 defeat at the relegation-threatened Leicester, extending their poor run away from home.

That leaves Julen Lopetegui’s side just six points clear of the drop zone, although after recent wins over Chelsea and Brentford they will be relatively confident of avoiding a prolonged relegation battle.

However, they come up against an in-form Crystal Palace on Tuesday and they could find their solid home record coming under threat.

Hodgson return boosts Palace

The Eagles are unbeaten since Roy Hodgson made his return to the club , beating Leicester, Leeds and Southampton before drawing against Everton on Saturday.

With form on their side and nine points between themselves and the bottom three, they look safe from the drop but will be keen to finish the season strongly.

Eze can fire Eagles to victory

One man who seems completely revitalised by Hodgson’s return is Eberechi Eze. The talented 24-year-old has put in three excellent performances recently and has three goals in his last four games. With a goal in each of his last two appearances against Wolves, he looks an excellent bet to find the net on Tuesday.

Wolves’ decent home record leaves them as favourites for this tie but Palace should have more than enough to claim a point or more. They are unbeaten in four and Wolves have only won three of their last ten, while Crystal Palace have won each of their last four meetings with the Molineux outfit.

I’m backing a Palace double chance and, with the visitors scoring exactly twice in each of their last three meetings with Wolves, a 2-1 correct score prediction.
