Crystal Palace travel to face Wolves in their final away fixture of an inconsistent 2019/20 campaign tonight.
The Eagles head to Molineux on the back of six successive Premier League defeats that have followed immediately after a run of four straight victories.
Palace could have a major say on who ends up qualifying for next season's Europa League, with their trip to Wolves followed by a home clash with London rivals Tottenham on the final day of the season.
Nuno Espirito Santo's side go into this game sitting seventh and two points adrift of Tottenham following the latter's thumping win against Leicester on Sunday and are searching for a second consecutive home win having been denied victory at Burnley last time out courtesy of a last-gasp Chris Wood penalty.
Date, time and venue
Wolves vs Crystal Palace is scheduled for an 8:15pm BST kick-off tonight.
There will be no fans in attendance at Molineux due to government guidelines following the coronavirus outbreak.

TV channel: Wolves vs Crystal Palace will be televised live on BT Sport 1 and BT Sport Ultimate, with coverage starting from 7:45pm BST.
Live stream: BT Sport subscribers will be able to watch the match online via the video player and the BT Sport app.
Team news
Wolves have had remarkably good luck on the injury front during what has been a long and gruelling season, with Nuno appearing to have a fully-fit squad to choose from for this match.
The same cannot be said for Palace, who will be without Patrick van Aanholt for a long period of time as the Dutch left-back awaits surgery on a dislocated shoulder suffered in the 2-0 defeat by Manchester United on Thursday.
Centre-backs Gary Cahill (hamstring) and James Tomkins (thigh) are still sidelined, while striker Christian Benteke is suspended after his red card at Aston Villa.
Prediction: Wolves 2-0 Crystal Palace
Palace are at a very low ebb following plenty of optimism during the early stages of the restart, scoring just twice during that run of six straight losses, with both goals coming in the same game against Chelsea.
Roy Hodgson's men are typically better on the road and were competitive against United, while Wolves haven't won back-to-back home games all season.
However, you would back the hosts to get the job done here and set a new record points total while claiming back sixth spot from Tottenham.
Mexican striker Raul Jimenez also needs just one more strike to move clear of John Richards and become Wolves' highest top-flight goalscorer in a single campaign.
Head to head (h2h) history and results
These two sides have met on just three previous occasions in the top-flight in the Premier League era, with both claiming one win apiece to go along with a single draw.
Palace were 2-0 victors at Molineux last season, while they drew 1-1 at Selhurst Park in September 2019 after Diogo Jota's dramatic 95th-minute equaliser cancelled out a Leander Dendoncker own goal as Romain Saiss saw red for the visitors.
