Chelsea vs Wolves form
Chelsea have just gone through a torturous tour, both literally and figuratively. Having traveled over 4,300 km, coach Enzo Maresca and his team are expected to make mincemeat of the host FK Qarabag, thereby hoping to get close to the top 8 (get a ticket straight to the round of 16).
But the reality was much more difficult for the visitors from London. Although young talent Estevao opened the scoring early, the inexperience of Jorrel Hato's defense continuously caused Chelsea to concede 2 goals. The efforts in the second half only helped The Blues to tie the score 2-2 and had to leave in disappointment.
Back in London, Chelsea will quickly welcome Wolves. Facing an opponent who is at the bottom of the Premier League table and in disastrous form, it will give the home team at Stamford Bridge a chance to regain their winning inspiration.
But that does not mean Chelsea stars are too complacent. Their physical and mental health has been somewhat affected by the trip to Azerbaijan, which has brought certain disadvantages. In addition, the Blues' performance in the Premier League has not been very stable.
In the last 6 rounds, the London giants have only won 3 and lost 3. However, overall, the home team's ability to earn all 3 points is still very high.
The few signs of improvement for Wolves have been lackluster. After two points from draws against Tottenham and Brighton, the team under coach Vitor Pereira has gone three consecutive rounds without a win.
The achievement of only 2 points after 10 rounds has left the Wolves at the bottom of the table, 8 points behind the nearest safe position. It is worth noting that at the same period last season, despite a disastrous start, Wolves were still able to get 3 points. Plus a streak of 2 wins in rounds 11 and 12 helped them escape the red light group.

But at the moment, there is no sign that Wolves will repeat the same scenario. The worst attack (scoring just 7 goals) and the most vulnerable defense (conceding 22 goals) have left even the most optimistic Molineux supporters doubting their team's ability to escape.
Wolves have lost all three recent encounters between the two sides. In the most recent encounter, more than a week ago in the fourth round of the English League Cup, the Wolves lost 3-4 at home, despite their opponents only fielding a squad consisting of many reserve players.
