Wolves vs Chelsea match review, 2:45 a.m. October 30: Wolves lose direction

VHO - Commentary on the match between Wolves vs Chelsea, round 4 of the English League Cup, facing the fear of relegation, the home team will hardly have the best spirit for the battle at Molineux in the middle of the week.

Wolves vs Chelsea form

Wolves vs Chelsea is one of four internal Premier League battles in the 4th round of the 2025/26 English League Cup. But compared to other big teams like Liverpool and Arsenal, The Blues have a much easier time.

Even though they have to travel to a foreign land, the task of finding a ticket to the quarter-finals for coach Enzo Maresca and his team seems quite easy.

Simply because the opponent on the other side of the battle line no longer has much mind to prolong his journey in an arena that hardly brings sweet prospects.

For Wolves, the current top priority is the Premier League. After 9 rounds, the Molineux team is still loyal to the bottom position and has become the only team in the Premier League 2025/26 that has not once tasted victory.

In the last two rounds, Wolves faced rookies in a situation where they could not afford to lose. But in the end, the Wolves were completely beaten.

If the 0-2 defeat at The Light against a team in good form like Sunderland can be somewhat understandable, the 2-3 loss at home to Burnley is no different from a painful slap in the face to the hopes of escaping the danger zone of coach Vitor Pereira and his team.

Wolves are now following the disastrous path they created last season. After 9 matches, the Molineux team has only earned 2 points and the distance to the nearest safe spot is up to 6 points.

If they don't wake up soon to get good results, Hwang Hee-chan and his teammates will easily fall into despair.

Chelsea unexpectedly lost 1-2 in the weekend match against Sunderland

Last season, the timely appearance of coach Vitor Pereira on the hot bench became an important turning point that helped Wolves successfully stay in the league. But now, the Portuguese coach himself is showing his inability and facing a dismissal notice.

Although they also suffered defeat last weekend, Chelsea's situation is not as dire as their opponent's.

The Blues are currently ranked 9th with 14 points from 4 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses. Part of the reason why the London giants have not performed as expected is due to the injury problems of key players.

Before falling to Sunderland, Chelsea had won four consecutive matches. After a stumble, coach Enzo Maresca and his team need to respond positively with a victory. Because next weekend, they have to enter the London derby with Tottenham.
