Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Chelsea: League Story So Far

Wolves are experiencing what still could be the worst season in Premier League history. Now, victory here would put them level with Derby County’s infamous horror show about a decade-and-a-half ago, but their eight points remain quite a farfetched gap if they are to miraculously survive.

As for The Blues, some strong form under Liam Rosenior has seen them fly back into the race for top four with rivals also seeing similar form. They currently reside in fifth, but in a perfect place to pounce upon a mistake from Manchester United, which would see them overtake them with a victory at Molineux.

Key Players to Watch: Wolverhampton Wanderers vs Chelsea

Matheus Mane (Wolves): Since coming into the Wolves squad, the 18-year-old has looked very promising. He has also scored two goals in just 13 appearances, also having a great header ruled out against Bournemouth.

Moises Caicedo (Chelsea): The still just 24-year-old Ecuadorean has been Chelsea’s standout performer by a long shot this season. Reminding Blues fans of Kante, he isn’t afraid to get stuck in, shown by his seven yellow cards, and he is certainly not afraid to let go from range, already bagging three this season.
