Crystal Palace host Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League on Saturday, with both teams looking to snap winless streaks. For Palace, that’s only a three-game run, but back-to-back defeats have seen them ship seven goals of late, having lost at home to West Ham last time out.
Wolves, on the other hand, have struggled badly over a longer period; it’s now seven league matches without victory for Nuno Espirito Santo’s team, though they certainly showed more resilience and organisation in a 0-0 draw with Chelsea in what was Thomas Tuchel’s first match in charge.
New signing Willian Jose came off the bench to make his debut in that game and the manager may feel this is a good game to start his forward for the first time, as the search for a ruthless streak goes on.

Wolves reverted to their old back three formation for that draw at Stamford Bridge, but if Willian Jose does come into the line-up he might provide more of a focal point for the attack and allow Nuno to persevere with his planned 4-2-3-1 of earlier in the season.
