Eight more teams go at it in four more battles for the busiest time slot of the day. Two matches I’m rather looking forward to is in this slide right here.

Crystal Palace vs. Wolves

Been waiting for these two to meet for some time now. Who will take the three points when an eagle meets a wolf for the first time this hunting season? Not an easy call with Wolves best performances coming at home, rather than on the road.

Roy Hodgson will be hoping the unacceptable behaviour has left Selhurst Park and a red card will only be words and not a prime topic in the post-match analytics. Both have been on decent runs of late, with one proving to be of more Premier League quality than the other. That dogs are Wolverhampton Wanderers.

The Wanderers head over their with good road works on their way. Suffering only one loss, stealing a couple of points here and there – all while winning one game as well while on travels, gives them all the reason to come back home with nothing less than point. Palace are five points from the drop, they must stop… This poor run that they on, unless they start asking why is Roy not where Frank got shoved.

Off the back of a defeat in the dying minutes of the game in Monday Night Football action to Bournemouth. Late robbery, but nothing less than a penalty. Proving again, discipline is the key to success for Roy’s men.

Score prediction
Crystal Palace 2-2 Wolves

Watford vs. Bournemouth

Even though this is not your regular top-of-the-table clash, taking these two’s current form into account before the fixture sets out, you have one heck of a meeting here today. Yes, the Cherries saving their berries in late, dramatic drama.

Palace outdone and deserved nothing from it after the great performance Howe got his team putting on. This match has sixth place Watford, going up against seventh place, Bournemouth… And that’s all jokes aside.

Showing the rest of the league what is to swim upstream and still make it, are these two lightweights. No points separating the two. So expecting nothing but the best from them. Gracia needs the consistency back and nows the right time with their run becoming more manageable.

Score prediction
Watford 2-1 Bournemouth
