WOL Vs CRY Fantasy Team Picks, Probable Playing 11, Injuries, Match Centre: Two sides in a rut take on each other in the FA Cup.
Racing into a 3-1 lead against Brighton earlier in the week, Wolverhampton looked headed for the three points. The club was in electric attacking form, finally dishing out a performance worthy of their credentials.
However, the side fell apart shambolically come the second half as they slipped to a 3-3 draw on the night. The result not only sees them without a win for four matches on the spin now but also alluded to the problems engulfing the side currently.
Elsewhere, Crystal Palace finally put the brakes on their appalling form as the team pulled off a much needed win against Sheffield United. The 2-0 triumph not only gave them breathing space in the relegation fracas but also saw them wrench out of their impasse.
WOL Vs CRY Fantasy Probable Winner
With both the clubs in the midst of a lull, today’s clash comes bearing with it colossal ramifications. We envision the hosts doing more than enough at the back to pull off a win.

Fantasy Team Picks
Goal-Keeper
We begin our set of picks with the selection of Jack Butland from Crystal Palace owing to his tenacity.
Defenders
They might have ended up shipping three goals the last time around but despite that, we’ll still be opting for a four man defensive unit from Wolverhampton. Crystal Palace have struggled traditionally to score, a side which will get cold feet infront of the home side.
We have all of Max Kilman, Conor Coady, Rayan Ait Nouri and Roman Saiss who has scored twice grace the land of our club.
Midfielders
He’s failed to justify the bruhaha around him this season but Adama Traore-Diarra has been settling into his groove off late. The midfield duo of Ruben Neves and Joao Moutinho link up as well owing to the two players ability to control the park with their ball handling abilities.
Eberechi Eze’s wonder strike earlier this week earns him a spot in our team from Crystal Palace along with Andrew Townsend.
Strikers
Crystal Palace’s top scorer with the seven goals, Wilfred Zaha completes our set of picks for the day.
Captain And Vice-Captain
Saiss’ penchant for goals sees him be our captain while Neves is the vice-captain.
Fantasy Team
Butland, Coady, Kilman, Rayan, Saiss, Adama, Townsend, Eze, Moutinho, Neves, Zaha
