Wolves head to Crystal Palace on Sunday searching for their first win of the season and put an end to that poor form in the process.Nuno Espirto Santo's men suffered their third successive defeat in all competitions on Thursday night as they slumped to a 1-0 home loss to Braga in the Europa League. That followed on from last Saturday's 5-2 thrashing at the hands of Chelsea, their first home defeat since January, and they make the trip to Selhurst Park rooted in the Premier League relegation zone. Three draws is all Wolves have to show for their efforts in the league and their exertions in Europe have been blamed for their struggles, although Nuno and Ruben Neves have this week both insisted their poor form is not a result of fatigue. They travel to south London in desperate need of a repeat of last year's 1-0 win over Palace, with the away team winning six of the last eight meetings between the two sides. The Eagles saw their two-match winning run in the league brought to an end last weekend away at Tottenham, their London rivals scoring four first-half goals in a 4-0 victory. Despite the heavy loss, a victory on Sunday would ensure Palace equal their highest points tally for a Premier League season after six games. Midfielder Cheikhou Kouyate has been passed fit from the ankle problem which forced him off against Spurs, while James Tomkins could feature having been fit enough to sit on the bench at Tottenham. James McArthur is also available but the game will come too soon for Connor Wickham. Wolves have no fresh injury concerns and could hand recalls to Joao Moutinho, Adama Traore and Diogo Jota after they started the loss to Braga on the bench. Wily Boly is available again after he missed the loss to Chelsea through suspension.
