Crystal Palace vs Wolverhampton Wanderers
The Palace party continues after securing a sensational FA Cup crown at the weekend. Glasner's rotated Eagles responded superbly to falling behind early on as an Nketiah double put them 2-1 up at the break. Chilwell's fortunate free-kick extended their advantage after the restart before Larsen's flicked header dragged Wolves back into the contest late on. But it was another night for the excellence of Eze, as the Wembley hero struck again, to seal the win for Palace. Four goals from an xG of just 1.66 shows how clinical the hosts were with Wolves netting twice from an xG of 1.52.
