MISS! Doherty latches onto a poor throw-in and drives to the byline before cutting back to the edge of the box. However, Jonny has to strike it on his weaker right foot and blazes it over the bar!

46'

43'
BLOCK! McArthur feints one way and shoots on his left as Palace work yet another chance, but it's blocked behind for a corner.
41'

35'

Boly fells Townsend with a clumsy challenge, although will feel the yellow card brandished at him is a little harsh.
21'
MISS! The corner is a wicked one towards the back post for Tomkins, who powers a header over the bar under pressure from a promising position!
18'
Better from Wolves as they switch play quickly to Jonny on the left. His early cross isn't the best delivery, but the intent was there.
16'
Sakho pops up on the left wing as Palace continue to dominate, but can't force the issue after a bit of a scramble on the edge of the box.
14'
Wolves have persisted with their half-press, showing an unwillingness to chase the ball into the Palace half and leave space behind their back line. Perhaps they are wary of their opponents' threat in behind, but it has led to a real lack of intensity.
12'
Wolves defend a Palace corner and have four streaming forward to break. Moutinho tries to ping it out to Cavaleiro on the left but it's behind him and ends up going out for a throw. What a waste.
9'
Wolves look very much out of sorts at the moment. They finally get their foot on the ball and stroke it around at the back but there's no tempo or purpose to their play, and eventually, an aimless forward ball goes out for a goal-kick.
7'
Palace have shown a commitment to playing out from the back so far and Wolves are largely allowing them to build from deep. It's not been a great start from the hosts - they've lacked energy.
5'
The strategy almost pays dividends as a loose touch gifts the hosts possession and the break seems on, but it's snuffed out as Palace retreat.
4'
Palace have dominated possession as Wolves make a cagey start. They have dropped into their own half, perhaps tyring to lure their opponents out of their defensive shape.
2'
Zaha cuts inside and floats a delightful cross-field ball towards Kouyate on the right, but the midfielder hauls Jonny down in the box and concedes a cheap free-kick.

We're off! Palace get us underway at Molineux.
Hello and welcome to our live coverage of the Premier League fixture between Wolves and Crystal Palace at Molineux!
Wolves come into Wednesday's clash on the back of a stunning 3-1 victory over Tottenham on Saturday, Nuno Espirito Santo's side scoring three late goals to win at Wembley.
Palace have failed to score since their sensational win over Manchester City on December 22, and have only picked up one point over the festive period so far.
The line-ups are out and we'll start with the home side.
Wolves XI (3-4-3): Rui Patricio; Ryan Bennett, Conor Coady, Willy Boly; Matt Doherty, Joao Moutinho, Romain Saiss, Jonny; Helder Costa, Raul Jimenez, Ivan Cavaleiro
Wolves substitutes: Leo Bonatini, Morgan Gibbs-White, Leander Dendoncker, Ruben Vinagre, Adama Traore, Ruben Neves, John Ruddy
Crystal Palace XI (4-3-3): Vicente Guaita; Aaron Wan-Bissaka, James Tomkins, Mamadou Sakho, Patrick van Aanholt; James McArthur, Luka Milivojevic, Cheikhou Kouyate; Andros Townsend, Jordan Ayew, Wilfried Zaha
Crystal Palace substitutes: Max Meyer, Jeffrey Schlupp, Joel Ward, Jairo Riedewald, Connor Wickham, Martin Kelly, Wayne Hennessey
There goes the half-time whistle! An out-of-sorts Wolves side have allowed Palace to dominate the ball and the chances in a tepid first-half showing from the hosts. Hodgson, on the other hand, will be pleased with his side's performance so far but may be concerned about their continued inability to score.
Wolves have a tendency to play better in the second half of games and Nuno will undoubtedly demand more from his side after the break. Despite their poor showing, Palace's profligacy has kept the game level at the break, with Ayew providing no threat whatsoever.
That's all from us, we hope you enjoyed the game. Thank you for joining our coverage, until next time, goodbye!
Wolves face the visit of Liverpool and Palace host Grimsby Town next in the FA Cup this weekend.
