Crystal Palace 3-1 Wolves

FA Cup winners, Crystal Palace, will be welcomed back to Selhurst Park on Tuesday as club immortals when they take on a Wolves side who will be safe for another season in the Premier League.

Date: 20/05/2025

Location: Selhurst Park, London.

Kick-Off: 8 pm

Oliver Glasner's side established themselves as arguably the greatest side in Crystal Palace history at the weekend, when the Eagles secured their first ever major trophy in the club's storied 164-year history with the FA Cup final victory against Manchester City. Eberechi Eze established himself in Palace folklore for eternity when he swept home an impressive move involving Daniel Munoz in the 16th minute to give Crystal Palace the lead and their cup triumph. Dean Henderson also performed heroics for the Eagles, saving a penalty from Omar Marmoush of Manchester City.

The win for Crystal Palace has now confirmed one of the European places in the Premier League, with the Eagles now having secured their place in the UEFA Europa League this season. This now essentially confirms that eighth place can't qualify for the UEFA Conference League, barring a unique situation involving Chelsea, where the Blues will have to finish seventh and win the UEFA Conference League.

As for Wolves, their decision to remove Gary O'Neil for Vitor Pereira has proved to be an excellent choice for the Midlands club, as they have secured their ninth consecutive season in the Premier League, having been on an impressive run of form under Pereira. Wolves are in 14th place in the Premier League, having been 16 points clear of the struggling teams towards the bottom of the Premier League table.

The league meeting between the two sides this season resulted in a stalemate. Wolves and Crystal Palace played out a 2-2 draw with goals from Joao Gomes and Jorgen Strand Larsen for Wolves. The Eagles found goals from Marc Guehi and Trevor Chalobah.
