We said: Wolverhampton Wanderers 1-1 Crystal Palace

Wolves have not drawn any of their last 10 Premier League matches, but they could be forced to share the spoils against a Crystal Palace side who have already drawn 12 times this season, the joint-most in the division. A tight encounter is expected at Molineux and as both teams have been difficult to break down in recent weeks, we could see a low-scoring draw played out this weekend. Read more.
