Wolves vs Chelsea Preview & Tips


Wolves form has not been great of late, but they are relatively solid on home soil. Chelsea lost ground on league leaders Manchester City last time out and need a win to get back on track, but there is value on a draw.

Head to Head


These two teams have met 14 times in the Premier League, with Chelsea recording nine wins, Wolves winning on three occasions and two games finishing in draws. 

Wolves Form


Wolves' recent form has been poor, but a 1-0 win at Brighton last time out ended a four-game winless run for Bruno Lage’s team. 

They had previously suffered two straight 1-0 defeats against the league’s top two Liverpool and Manchester City.

Wolves Team News


Wolves look set to be without defensive duo Jonny and Yerson Mosquera. Neto is also sidelined through injury, while Hee-Chan Hwang and Rayan Ait Nouri are fitness doubts.

Chelsea Form


The Blues' form has slipped of late to slip four points behind Premier League leaders Manchester City.

A 1-1 draw against a severely weakened Everton team last time out means that Thomas Tuchel’s team have won just one of their last four games in all competitions. 

Chelsea Team News


Ben Chilwell is injured, while Kai Havertz, Mateo Kovacic, Callum Hudson-Odoi, Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner are fitness doubts.
