Chelsea vs Wolves

Chelsea welcome Wolves at Stamford Bridge this afternoon as they look to end their Premier League slump.Thomas Tuchel's side have only won two of thei.

- Wolves are winless in their last eight away league games against Chelsea (D3 L5), since a 2-1 win in March 1979. - Only bottom side Norwich (19) have failed to score in more different Premier League games than Wolves (16) this season. In fact, the Blues have conceded before half-time in just one of their last 13 Premier League games, doing so twice in their eventual 4-2 defeat to Arsenal. They’ve not lost four consecutive league games without scoring a single goal since March-April 1970 in the top-flight. - Mason Mount is Chelsea’s highest scorer (10) and assister (9) in the Premier League this season, with only Mohamed Salah registering double figures for both goals and assists so far this term. And it doesn’t matter if we are in a race for top four, the last four games is not enough.

Thomas Tuchel has made three changes following our defeat at Everton last weekend and a full week to prepare for today's game.

Christian Pulisic replaces Mason Mount in the attack where he is joined by Timo Werner. The referee is Peter Bankes. The defence is unchanged.

Chelsea hosts Wolves in a pivotal Premier League clash, here is how The Pride of London team sees the contest playing out.

The season after season battle that the media has to try and do the Blues down is relentless. Wolves is a stubborn—albeit struggling—side currently, but so are the Blues. I’m going to go with my colleague, Kevin, and predict Big Rom to be the match winner and restore the passion of the Stamford Bridge faithful. It will be a difficult game, partly because it’s Wolves and partly because every game for Chelsea is a difficult game at this moment in time. Chelsea has struggled against Wolves, and this stubborn side has the potential to even cause an upset. After struggling against a struggling Everton, it would be “a Chelsea thing” to also struggle against Wolves due to self-inflicted issues. Wolves proved a struggle earlier in the campaign, but that was on a rainy, foggy day in Wolverhampton with an exhausted and depleted squad.

It's been quite a day for the hosts. Wissa then seized on the loose ball and picked out the bottom corner. Boly stepped in to intercept, however. Sa got down to make the save, though. If that was on target, it likely would have beaten the goalkeeper all ends up. The focus has turned to their attempts to seal a spot in the Champions League for next season, and the happier supporters have turned up in their droves. Toney was able to take down a corner on his chest, move to the byline and then cross into the penalty area. Moutinho clipped one into the penalty area, Silva deflected the ball slightly, and Saiss was unable to readjust on the fly to guide a header on target. Sa looked to be odds-on to gobble the ball up but he made a mess of the situation, leaving Lukaku with the ball at a tight angle. Buendia's strike from the middle of the area took a wicked deflection and was diverted out of the grasp of the flailing Pope. Moutinho came away with the ball from a 50/50 in the centre of the park, and Boly played through Ait-Nouri. Lukaku was able to hold off Saiss on the edge of the box, and was felled.

Chelsea face Wolves this afternoon as they bid to arrest a poor run of form and make sure of a top-four spot in the Premier League.

Romelu Lukaku scored twice, but it wasn't enough to earn Chelsea the points against Wolves, who came back to draw 2-2.

Was denied by a fantastic save early in the second period but struggled with his end product after that. FW Romelu Lukaku, 9 -- In the first half, he saw his first shot blocked, missed Kovacic's pass after making a good run, then kept Saiss off before hitting a decent shot that was saved. Capitalised on Wolves' mistake and slipped Lukaku through for the second goal. GK Edouard Mendy, 6 -- Had nothing to do until he made a good save to deny Pedro Neto shortly before half-time, though he could have been punished for pushing the ball back into a dangerous area. MF Reece James, 6 -- Often defended well, making a key header to deny Neto at the back post. His late changes weren't enough to hold on to the three points.
