U21 preview | Crystal Palace vs Wolves

Wolves under-21s are back on the road on Friday afternoon with a trip to face Crystal Palace in the PL2.

Successive victories for James Collins’ side have provided the ideal response to an opening day defeat at the hands of Chelsea.

Blackburn Rovers and Brighton & Hove Albion are the latest two missions to have been successfully completed by Wolves’ under-21s, who have collected all six points on offer since matchday one.

Harvey Griffiths and Christian Marques were on the scoresheet on Monday evening at Aggborough, as a 2-0 victory over Brighton lifted the old gold into sixth in the table.

Opponents Palace have made an impressive start to 2022/23 themselves, with two wins and a draw from their first three fixtures.

Paddy McCarthy’s Eagles were 3-2 victors over Brighton, before they secured a thumping 5-1 win at Manchester United – last Friday’s 2-2 draw at Fulham earned a seventh point from nine for the second-placed outfit.

Next up after Friday’s game is a Papa John’s Trophy tie at Shrewsbury Town on Tuesday evening for Collins’ men.
