Wolves vs Chelsea: Blues head to Molineux chasing four-in-a-row to leapfrog Man Utd | OneFootball

Wolverhampton Wanderers welcome Chelsea to Molineux this weekend as the Premier League resumes following a busy midweek cup schedule.

Chelsea arrive determined to ensure their Carabao Cup exit does not disrupt the positive league momentum built under head coach Liam Rosenior.

The Blues were knocked out of the competition by Arsenal in midweek, with a late goal ending their hopes of reaching the final.

While the defeat was disappointing, attention has quickly shifted back to Premier League matters.

Chelsea’s league form has improved markedly since Rosenior’s appointment, with results lifting them into the top-five conversation.

Victories over Brentford, Crystal Palace and West Ham United have reignited belief that Champions League qualification remains attainable.

The dramatic comeback win at West Ham, sealed by a stoppage-time goal, underlined a growing resilience within the squad.

Chelsea now sit just outside the top four and know fixtures against struggling sides offer little room for error.

Wolves, however, cannot be dismissed despite their difficult season.

Rob Edwards’ side are battling at the foot of the table and enter the match following back-to-back league defeats without scoring.

Goals have been a persistent issue, with Wolves failing to find the net in a significant proportion of their Premier League matches.

Their home form at Molineux has also been poor, with only one win in their last seven league outings.

Recent squad changes have reflected a club bracing itself for a challenging run-in.

Chelsea have already beaten Wolves twice this season, including a 3-0 league victory at Stamford Bridge.

They also enjoyed success against Rob Edwards’ men in the Carabao Cup earlier in the campaign.

Despite that record, Rosenior has emphasised the need for focus and intensity regardless of the opposition.

The Premier League has repeatedly shown that complacency is swiftly punished, particularly away from home.

Chelsea’s away form against lower-half sides has been encouraging, but consistency remains the key objective.

This match offers an immediate opportunity to respond to cup disappointment and maintain pressure on the teams above.

This game represents another chance for Wolves to show resilience in a difficult campaign.

For Chelsea, it is about control, professionalism and sustaining their push towards the top four.
