Chelsea will hope to begin what is a packed festive fixture schedule with a win as they travel to face Wolves on Christmas Eve.

The Blues have lost three of their past five games and will need to avoid defeat to ensure that they reach Christmas in the top half. They currently sit tenth, three points ahead of this weekend’s opponents, who are in 12th - both sides have been in indifferent form of late, with Wolves also having lost three of their five most recent games.

Chelsea won last weekend, beating Sheffield United at Stamford Bridge, but they have struggled recently away from SW6 and have now lost three successive away matches. Wolves, meanwhile, are undefeated at Molineux in six matches so far this season and will hope to extend this run into the New Year.

Chelsea lost on their last visit to the Black Country, with a 1-0 defeat coming in May of this year and have gone three matches without winning at Molineux. Their last victory came in September 2019, with Tammy Abraham scoring a hat-trick in a 5-2 win.
