Wolves vs. Chelsea: Match Preview

"The Wolves" are usually thought to be a non-sparking team which moves up and down nearby the middle of the Championship standings, however, this fact could not be proved by Liverpool unless there was some kind of miracle making for the hosts to score two goals in the first half, which were followed by a pushed-in ball from Divock Origi in the last minutes of the regular match time. Besides, that advancing win has been followed by another success afterwards, then three defeats in a row until today.

Antonio Conte's leading Chelsea also met with Liverpool three days after that game, but in a England top tier round match, where Chelsea were hosted at "Anfield" as well, letting go of the potential win as Georginio Wijnaldum equalized the score in 57 minute - and it stayed unaltered allowing the teams split the points. Situation in Premier league for "The Blues" looks pretty clear and steady, so they can shift their aim on FA Cup commitment.

To be frankly realistic, it seems that Wolverhampton are off the board already if considering their latest two home defeats delivered by Newcastle Utd and Wigan with the same 0-1 score. Thus if "The Wanderers" played at full blast to squeeze the maximum from this upcoming fixture, it would be a draw at best, though. However, chances are Chelsea will bring the host down, thereby eliminating them off the draw with no hesitation.
