Crystal Palace return to Selhurst Park on Sunday, desperate to rediscover their home edge against a rejuvenated Wolverhampton Wanderers.
The Eagles have beaten Wolves in their last five top-flight meetings in South London, but confidence is fragile.
Palace have won just one of their last 11 league games, and Oliver Glasner’s men threw away a 2-0 lead in their most recent home outing, setting up a tentative clash.
Palace have seen their form dip at the wrong time. They are now only four points above the relegation zone.
The Eagles were held to a frustrating draw last time out despite leading at half-time.
Home comforts may offer hope. Palace have won each of their last five Premier League home meetings with Wolves, scoring 11 goals across that run.
However, Rob Edwards’ side arrives with renewed belief despite sitting at the bottom of the league table.
Wolves are unbeaten in four league matches (W2, D2) and secured an impressive point against Arsenal in midweek.
Wolves have struggled badly on the road this season. They are still searching for their first away league win of the campaign, a trend Palace will be determined to extend.
Palace have won five consecutive home league games against Wolves.
The visitors have won just one of their last nine Premier League meetings with the hosts (D3, L5).
The Eagles have kept only one clean sheet in their last eight league outings. Shut-outs are also rare for the Midlands club.
It is worth noting that Wolves have dropped 21 points from winning positions this season, among the highest totals in the division.
Cheick Doucoure, Jefferson Lerma and Eddie Nketiah remain sidelined, limiting Glasner’s options in midfield and attack.
Maxence Lacroix faces a late fitness test, while Chadi Riad is pushing to return after a recent knock.
Expect Glasner to drop the uninspiring Brennan Johnson, 24, after failing to deliver the goods following his winter transfer.
Dean Henderson; Chris Richards, Maxence Lacroix, Chadi Riad; Daniel Munoz, Adam Wharton, Daichi Kamada, Tyrick Mitchell; Yeremy Pino, Ismaila Sarr; Jorgen Strand Larsen.
