Trevoh Chalobah put Palace ahead on the hour mark, drilling into an unguarded net after Jorgen Strand Larsen inadvertently headed Will Hughes바카라™ cross away from his own goalkeeper Jose Sa.

However, Chalobah바카라™s missed interception allowed Matheus Cunha to tee up Larsen바카라™s 67th-minute equaliser, then Wolves went ahead within five further minutes.

Joao Gomes stroked home following good work from substitute Goncalo Guedes but Wolves 바카라“ and their under-fire head coach Gary O바카라™Neil 바카라“ were denied a vital win by Palace skipper Marc Guehi.

He was alive to convert at the back post after Daniel Munoz flicked on a corner, keeping Palace four points clear of Wolves in 17th, and the Eagles could have won it in stoppage time, only for Jean-Phillipe Mateta바카라™s strike to be disallowed for Munoz바카라™s foul on Sa.

O바카라™Neil바카라™s side remain 20th after Southampton recorded their first win of 2024-25 against Everton, ahead of a huge clash between the division바카라™s bottom two clubs next week.

Data Debrief: Wolves바카라™ wait goes on

After Southampton beat Everton at St Mary바카라™s earlier on Saturday, Wolves remain one of just two winless sides in the Premier League, alongside Ipswich Town.

This is just the third time in their history that they have gone 10 games without a win at the start of a league campaign, after 1926-27 (10 matches) and 1983-84 (14).

O바카라™Neil바카라™s men are now winless in 13 league games dating back to last season, their second-longest run in the competition바카라™s history, behind only a streak of 17 between February 2012 and August 2018.

At the end of a week in which Manchester United made Erik ten Hag the season바카라™s first managerial casualty, O바카라™Neil remains under severe pressure.
