Wolves vs Chelsea: Premier League Prediction Match Details
On Sunday, Wolves will host Chelsea at Molineux in the second-round fixture of the 2024–25 Premier League. Both teams suffered opening weekend losses.
Wolves Preview & Form
Wolverhampton suffered a 2-0 defeat in their opening round of the new Premier League season against Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium. However, despite the defeat away from their stadium, the Wolves put in some good performances in the game, but they will need to be more clinical in front of goals. The defeat sees the Wolves continue their poor run of four consecutive defeats on match day.
Head Coach Gary O’Neil’s team finished the 2023–24 Premier League season with a poor home record, securing only one win and losing five of their last six matches. Notably, Wolves will boost their confidence in this encounter against Chelsea, having won both legs of the Premier League last season.
Chelsea Preview & Form
Chelsea’s new manager, Enzo Maresca, began his reign in the Premier League campaign with a 2-0 opening defeat to former manager Pep Guardiola at Stamford Bridge last weekend, and he will be hoping his team can get his first Premier League victory in this match. However, the Blues bounced back to winning ways with a 2-0 home victory against Servette in the first leg of the Conference League qualification. Notably, Enzo Maresca, since arriving for the Blues, has now recorded only two wins in his last eight matches, including preseason games, losing four and playing two draws.
The Blues will be looking to improve their away form from last season, as they performed poorly, only managing two wins in their last eight away games.
