THE LOWDOWN
CHELSEA
- A desperately disappointing 1-0 defeat at the hands of Everton highlighted Chelsea’s recent inconsistency in the Premier League with the Blues having now won one, drawn one and lost two of their last four fixtures.
- Midfielders Jorginho and N’Golo Kante are both ruled out with Callum Hudson-Odoi and Ben Chilwell also absent.
WOLVES
- Wolves fans will be demanding a response from their side following an extremely poor performance last weekend which saw them beaten 0-3 at home to Brighton, their third consecutive defeat.
- A foot injury may rule Daniel Podence out while defenders Max Kilman and Nelson Semedo will definitely be absent.
THE TEAM NEWS
CHELSEA
PREDICTED XI (3-4-1-2): Mendy; Christensen, Silva, Rudiger; James, Kovacic, Loftus-Cheek, Alonso; Mount, Pulisic; Lukaku
UNAVAILABLE: Chilwell (Injured), Hudson-Odoi (Injured), Jorginho (Injured), Kante (Injured)
QUESTIONABLE:
WOLVES
PREDICTED XI (3-5-2): Sa; Boly, Coady, Saiss; Jonny, Dendoncker, Neves, Moutinho, Marcal; Jimenez, Hwang
UNAVAILABLE: Kilman (Injured), Semedo (Injured)
QUESTIONABLE: Podence (Injured)
THE PREDICTION
It’s difficult to judge which Chelsea will turn up here with the Blues having struggled for consistency in recent weeks. However, it should help that they are taking on a Wolves team totally out of form and lacking any sort of threat going forward, failing to score across their most recent three which have all ended in defeat. With home advantage in their favour, the expectation is that Chelsea’s performances levels will substantially improve compared to their underwhelming showing against Everton, so back them to overcome the struggling visitors.
