Wolverhampton Wanderers host Crystal Palace in their last home game of the Premier League season.

Wolves are sat in sixth and looking good for a Europa League spot for next season, plus they have this season’s competition to complete once the domestic league is over.

It speaks volumes as to the excellent job Nuno Espirito Santo has done once again.

Crystal Palace seem as though their season has ended early and in dismal fashion, as they are now six games on the bounce being defeated.

Here’s all you need to know ahead of the match.
