Match Preview
It wasn’t the start to the new season that either Chelsea or Wolves were hoping for, as both were beaten in the opening round of matches at the start of the new campaign. However, both clubs will have the opportunity to respond when they collide on matchday two in the competition this Sunday.
Enzo Maresca’s reign at Stamford Bridge started with a defeat last weekend, as they were put to the sword by a clinical Man City in front of their home fans. The Blues managed just three shots on target against the reigning champions, and there are still concerns surrounding their chances this term, as Maresca looks to build a team from the 42 players at his disposal.

Wolves also started the season with a 2-0 defeat, but they had their chances at the Emirates against Arsenal last Saturday. On another day, the club could have taken a point against the side that are among the favorites to win the title this term, and Gary O’Neill’s side will likely need to be more clinical in front of goal when they get their chances this weekend.
Wolves have won each of their last three matches against the Blues, which includes a 4-2 success at Stamford Bridge in the previous meeting between the sides. They have also gone four home matches without defeat against Chelsea, which includes victories in each of the last two. Wolves landed a 2-1 success in this exact fixture last term.
Wolves vs Chelsea Picks
The record of the home side in this fixture could be a key angle to follow this weekend. For that reason, we will be taking a chance on a home win for Wolves at Molineux on Sunday against Chelsea.
