Wolverhampton Wanderers make two changes for Sunday's Premier League game with Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park.

Wolverhampton Wanderers have made two changes for Sunday's Premier League game with Crystal Palace.

Gary O'Neil's side have prevailed in their last two fixtures, edging out Everton at Goodison Park last weekend before thrashing Blackpool in the EFL Cup three days later.

Pablo Sarabia's performance in the latter, where he provided multiple assists, has led to a recall to the starting lineup, while Rayan Ait-Nouri has been restored to the team.

Hwang Hee-chan has recovered from a hamstring injury sustained versus Everton, but the South Korea international only features among the replacements, while Hugo Bueno has lost his place at left-back.

Sasa Kalajdzic would have hoped for a first Premier League start having scored in successive games, only for O'Neil to show preference to Matheus Cunha and Fabio Silva.

With the players selected by O'Neil, Wolves will either line up in a 4-4-2 or 4-2-3-1 formation, moving away from the back three that was used against Blackpool.

While Enso Gonzalez is named on the bench, fellow new arrivals Santiago Bueno, Tommy Doyle and Jean-Ricner Bellegarde are not involved.

Meanwhile, Palace boss Roy Hodgson has opted to select the same team that started the 1-1 draw at Brentford last weekend.

That means that goalkeeper Dean Henderson will start his Eagles career as backup to Sam Johnstone and Jean-Philippe Mateta has been kept in reserve despite his hat-trick against Plymouth Argyle in the EFL Cup on Tuesday.

Crystal Palace: Johnstone; Ward, Guehi, Andersen, Mitchell; Lerma, Doucoure; Ayew, Eze, Schlupp; Edouard

Subs: Henderson, Tomkins, Richards, Riedewald, Clyne, Hughes, Ahamada, Rak-Sakyi, Mateta

Wolverhampton Wanderers: Sa; Semedo, Kilman, Dawson, Ait-Nouri; Gomes, Lemina; Cunha, Sarabia, Neto; Silva

Subs: Bentley, Doherty, Traore, Hwang, H.Bueno, Kalajdzic, Gomes, Gonzalez, Fraser
