🏆 Best Football Bet of the Day – Crystal Palace vs Wolverhampton Wanderers
Tyler Morris; Football Analyst at BettingTips4You
Both Teams to Score
| |
21/20 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning This Serie B playoff clash is shaped by attacking instincts and defensive flaws. Juve Stabia thrive at home, while Cremonese are clinical on the road yet vulnerable at the back. With both teams having scored in their last four duels, the BTTS market looks like a very strong shout once again. | |
Key Stats:
- 6 of Palace’s last 8 home matches ended with over 2.5 goals.
- Wolves have kept just 1 clean sheet in their last 6 visits to Selhurst Park.
- Palace scored in all but one of their last 8 home outings, netting 15 in total.
Rationale:
Fresh from lifting the FA Cup, Crystal Palace return to domestic league duties with confidence soaring. Their slender yet momentous victory over Manchester City capped a strong end to their season, and now Oliver Glasner’s men return to a ground where they’ve made a habit of imposing themselves.
Unbeaten in their last eight at Selhurst Park and having netted 15 during that stretch, Palace have found their stride at home. Even more notably, they’ve scored multiple goals in five of those matches, highlighting an attacking intent rarely seen earlier in the campaign. Their 2-0 triumph over Spurs showcased their ability to maintain performance levels even in Premier League action.
On the other side, Wolves arrive after back-to-back defeats, struggling to find the net in both. However, their underlying metrics offer some encouragement. Against Brighton, they produced a higher xG than their opponents, and this suggests their current scoring drought may not last. Vitor Pereira’s men will be keen to avenge a string of poor results at Selhurst Park, where they’ve been beaten five times in six visits.
The tactical setup of both teams adds to the promise of goals. Palace’s rotation, following their cup exertions, could leave their backline less settled, while Wolves’ injury-stricken defence is also susceptible. The likely absences of Guehi and Johnstone, paired with untested combinations in defence for both sides, further point toward a game with chances aplenty.
Moreover, Wolves have tended to thrive away from Molineux recently, netting 13 times in six prior road games before their current mini-slump. If Palace persist with their aggressive front three of Sarr, Nketiah and Esse, and if Wolves’ counter-attacking style clicks, this could be an action-packed contest.
Best bet – Over 2.5 goals
