Wolves remain winless in Premier League after draw with Crystal Palace

Marc Guehi’s equaliser denied Wolves their first win of the Premier League season as Crystal Palace took a share of the spoils in an entertaining 2-2 draw at Molineux.

After Southampton’s victory over Everton earlier in the day, the result left Wolves languishing rock-bottom in the table and are without a victory from their first 10 matches.

Wolves have the league’s leakiest defence and came close to going a goal down several times in the first period courtesy of chances from Daichi Kamada and Eddie Nketiah before Trevoh Chalobah blocked his own team-mate Jean-Philippe Mateta’s effort.

Jorgen Strand Larsen and Joao Gomes helped Wolves come from behind and take the lead after Chalobah opened the scoring, but Guehi’s leveller ensured Wolves’ winless run continued.

It could have been worse for the hosts as Mateta had a last-gasp effort ruled out by VAR, but both sides had to settle for a point.

Only five teams have survived relegation after failing to win any of their opening 10 games, and it leaves Wolves as one of only two sides in the division without a win, alongside Ipswich, while Palace hover just above the drop zone on seven points.

Pablo Sarabia came in for Mario Lemina in Gary O’Neil’s only change, while Oliver Glasner was forced to opt for Daichi Kamada and Ismaila Sarr following injuries to key pair Eberechi Eze and Adam Wharton.

Glasner’s side were first to threaten – Craig Dawson threw his body in the way of Will Hughes’ powerful goalbound effort before Kamada’s follow-up found the gloves of Jose Sa.

Palace ought to have been a goal up in the 30th minute.

Chalobah beat the offside trap from Guehi’s header across goal as his miskick fell nicely for Mateta from five yards, but the striker blasted the ball
