Wolves v Crystal Palace: Eagles changes likely, Wolves duo doubtful

Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson could consider rotating his starting XI for the game at Wolves, after watching them struggle to create in the 1-0 defeat to Chelsea.

Vicente Guaita is expected to retain his place in goal ahead of the fit-again Wayne Hennessey but striker Connor Wickham is pushing to start after successive substitute appearances.

Christian Benteke remains Palace’s only injury absentee for the Premier League match, because of a knee injury.

Provisional squad: Hennessey, Guaita, Speroni, Wan-Bissaka, Tomkins, Sakho, Van Aanholt, Dann, Kelly, Souare, Riedewald, Townsend, Kouyate, McArthur, Meyer, Milivojevic, Puncheon, Schlupp, Ayew, Kaikai, Sorloth, Wickham, Zaha.

Diogo Jota remains an injury doubt for Wolves ahead of the visit of Crystal Palace.

The Portuguese forward has missed the last three matches with a hamstring problem.

Winger Adama Traore will be assessed after going off with a minor knock during Saturday’s 3-1 win at Tottenham.

Provisional squad: Patricio, Ruddy, Norris, Doherty, Dendoncker, Bennett, Enobakhare, Hause, Boly, Coady, Gibbs-White, Jonny, Kilman, Saiss, Neves, Costa, Moutinho, Vinagre, Bonatini, Traore, Jimenez.
