Gary O’Neil’s Wolverhampton kick off their home Premier League campaign on Sunday when they take on Chelsea in the Black Country. Securing their Premier League status will likely be the biggest goal for Wolverhampton this term, and they could be a standout pick to claim maximum points this weekend.
The home side come into this second round of matches chasing a response after losing on the opening day of the campaign against Arsenal.
| Recent Form (all competitions, most recent first) | L-L-W-L-W |
| Key Players to Watch | Mario Lemina, Matheus Cunha |
| Team Strengths | Good defensively |
| Team Weaknesses | Don’t often create clear scoring chances |
| Injuries and Suspensions | Enso Gonzalez (ACL) |
Enzo Maresca’s time at Chelsea hasn’t got off to the most straightforward start, as the former Leicester boss is keen to offload stars from his squad to work with a tighter group.
Friction is already growing at the club after the omission of Raheem Sterling last Sunday, and that could be a key factor to take into account when making a Wolverhampton vs Chelsea prediction.
The Blues started their season with a home defeat after being put to the sword against a dominant Man City on Sunday. Chelsea mustered just three shots on target in that defeat, and a return to form is desperately required on the road this weekend.
| Recent Form (all competitions, most recent first) | L-D-L-L-W |
| Key Players to Watch | Cole Palmer, Christopher Nkunku |
| Team Strengths | Quality players in all positions |
| Team Weaknesses | Unpredictable |
| Injuries and Suspensions | Raheem Sterling (Personal Reasons) |
The hosts have won their last three against the Blues, including a 4-2 success at Stamford Bridge last term.
Wolverhampton have also gone four without defeat at home against Chelsea, winning each of their last two.
Cole Palmer will once again be at the heart of everything positive Chelsea does on Sunday. The 22-year-old netted 22 goals in 33 matches last term, and also registered eleven assists.
Palmer will need to reach the same standards this term if the Blues are to challenge for a position in the European places.
Chelsea’s high line was evident in their opening-day loss against Man City, and it’s unlikely that Maresca will alter his set-up against Wolverhampton this weekend. Therefore, the hosts could look to stretch their rivals by playing long balls to cause confusion.
O’Neil’s side are a defensive outfit, meaning that the Blues will dominate possession, and they will need to work incredibly hard to break down the Black Country club.
The home team boasts an excellent record in this fixture, and that could be challenging to overlook when making a Wolverhampton vs Chelsea prediction.
The visitors already look to have major issues off the field, and that will also go against them when they travel to the West Midlands on Sunday.
Matheus Cunha will likely return to the starting eleven for this showdown on Sunday after coming off the bench on his return from injury against Arsenal last weekend. The Brazilian is the most important player in this Wolverhampton side after netting 12 in 32 Premier League appearances last term.
