Wolves vs Chelsea: Who is the referee and VAR for the Premier League clash? | OneFootball

The officials have been confirmed for Chelsea's Premier League clash against Wolves on Saturday afternoon.

Head coach Liam Rosenior has made a strong start to life as Chelsea head coach, with his only defeats coming in the Carabao Cup to Arsenal, who knocked the Blues out on Tuesday night to progress into the final.

Chelsea head to Molineux to face Rob Edwards' side who are staring at the face of relegation. Wolves have accumulated just eight points from 24 matches and are 18 points adrift of safety.

Despite the Carabao Cup defeat, Chelsea have won their last three Premier League games and will be keen to extend the run to four to maintain their position around the Champions League qualification places.
