Charlie Nicholas' prediction
Crystal Palace do not like scoring goals at home. Wilfried Zaha has not kicked a ball yet and is not causing damage and I don't know why they didn't go back into the market. Gary Cahill has improved them defensively, but for the above reasons you cannot say you fancy them.
Wolves should not burn out too much with a home Europa League tie on Thursday, and are in dire need of a win. It was very unlike them to get exposed like they did against Chelsea, but they will bounce back here.
CHARLIE PREDICTS: 0-1 (13/2 with Sky Bet)
