After securing a 1-0 victory against rivals Brighton at the Amex, it finally seemed like Crystal Palace had turned a corner, as they broke out of a 12-game winless streak. However, the Eagles were pegged back once again, as they suffered a damning defeat against Burnley in their last Premier League match. It was further disappointment midweek for Oliver Glasner, as his side were only able to draw (1-1) against Bosnian side Zrinjski Mostar in the Conference League. 

Palace have at least shown improvements in the final third, as they have scored in each of their last seven matches across all competitions, but the main concern for them is how leaky they have been at the back - they have only kept two clean sheets since the start of January. 

Wolves haven’t been particularly impressive in the final third this season, but they will fancy their chances of causing problems against Palace, especially after their result against Arsenal last time out. Wolves also netted against Chelsea a few weeks back, and have scored in four of their last six away league matches (v Everton, Man United, Liverpool, and Arsenal).

Morgan Gibbs-White played a pivotal role in that win against Liverpool earlier in the season, pulling the string from an advanced midfield position. He recorded two shots and scored the third and final goal of the game to seal the victory. 

His shot volume has been much more consistent on home turf this season, and Gibbs-White has landed this bet in 15 out of 16 appearances at the City Ground. The 26-year-old is averaging 3.01 shots per 90 across all competitions at home, which is amongst the highest values in the Forest squad, and his role in the squad looks set to remain unchanged despite the arrival of a new manager. 

Gibbs-White provided an assist for Igor Jesus against Fenerbahce, before the Brazilian returned the favour for Gibbs-White to score the third goal of the game in the 50th minute. The Englishman had four shots midweek, with three on target.

Sunderland’s 1-0 defeat to Liverpool in their most recent Premier League game was the first loss that they’ve suffered at the Stadium of Light in the league this season. They’ve been incredibly hard to shift at home this term, netting 21 goals across their 13 matches in front of their own supporters (1.61 per game).

This fits quite well with Fulham’s poor record on the road this season. Marco Silva’s side have only managed to win three of their 13 away matches in the Premier League, losing eight of these games. The most notable part of this record is how vulnerable Fulham have been defensively, they’ve conceded 24 goals across their 13 away fixtures (1.84 per game).

Fulham aren’t particularly strong when it comes to keeping clean sheets in general in the Premier League. They’ve only kept five all season, and have failed to keep the opposition out in each of their last five matches across all competitions - including conceding to Stoke in the FA Cup last time out.

The bet has landed in seven of Simons' last eight in the league. Simons will likely duel with Jurrien Timber, who’s been fouled in all of his last five, winning seven fouls in that run.

Simons is averaging 0.98 fouls per 90 in the Premier League and crucially, 1.89 tackles per 90 as well. He’s made five sliding tackles in his last three games, too. Igor Tudor will tweak things, but Simons' fouling has remained consistent, despite playing in different positions this season, add in the fuel of the North London derby and he should sin at least once.

Simons could get involved with Eberechi Eze (1.79 fouls won per 90) and even Bukayo Saka (2.30 fouls won per 90) if he starts, we could see more tracking back to impress his new manager.
