Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Chelsea

Wolverhampton Wanderers and Chelsea go head-to-head in an exciting Premier League showdown at Molineux Stadium.

A hard-fought 1-0 away win over Brighton in midweek Premier League action halted Wolverhampton’s four-game scoring duck in England’s top-flight (D2, L2). Despite netting fewer Premier League goals (13) than any other side to start the day in the upper half of the table, ‘Wolves’ are still eight points adrift of fourth-placed Arsenal, on whom they have a game in hand. Though beating the reigning Champions League holders look like a formidable task, it’s worth noting that Bruno Lage’s men have won two of their last three top-flight H2Hs at Molineux (L1), returning an identical 2-1 scoreline on each occasion. Entertainment has been relatively sparse in Wolverhampton’s recent Premier League fixtures, as each of their last five such contests has seen one or both sides fail to get on the scoresheet in matches garnering under 1.5 overall goals.

In the meantime, Chelsea could only manage an uneventful 1-1 home draw with Everton in their midweek Premier League encounter despite attempting 23 shots on goal. Chelsea’s indifferent form across their last three league matches (W1, D1, L1) has seen the ‘Blues’ fall to third in the standings, four points below top-placed Manchester City. Curiously, they succumbed to a 3-2 defeat at West Ham in their most recent Premier League travel, suffering only their second Premier League away loss under current boss Thomas Tuchel. Another reverse at Molineux would see the London outfit lose back-to-back league games on hostile turf for the first time since December 2020. Worryingly, Chelsea have failed to keep a clean sheet in each of their last five Premier League outings in a row, their longest top-flight run without a shutout under Tuchel’s tenure.
