Chelsea Aims for First Premier League Win at Molineux in Five Years

This Sunday, Chelsea will be aiming for their first Premier League victory at Molineux in five years as they prepare to face Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Both Chelsea and Wolves are seeking their first goal and clean sheet of the league season after suffering 2-0 losses in their opening matches against Manchester City and Arsenal, respectively.

While Chelsea has managed to secure a 2-0 victory against Servette in the UEFA Conference League, Wanderers are looking to improve after being unable to find their rhythm against Arsenal.

Last season, Wolves achieved a Premier League double against Chelsea, winning both encounters, including a 2-1 victory at Molineux on Christmas Eve.

Wolves have not won their opening Premier League fixture at Molineux since 2011, and Chelsea will look to utilize their strong record in first away matches of the Premier League season, having won six of their last eight.

With players returning from injuries and a focus on intensity under the management of their new coach, Chelsea is hopeful for a positive result, especially given their recent struggles against Wolves.

The Blues have only won one of the last eight meetings with Wolves and have lost the previous three encounters, raising stakes for this weekend’s match.

Wolves will be without Nelson Semedo due to suspension but are expected to maintain a consistent lineup from their last match. Chelsea, meanwhile, will miss captain Reece James due to injury.

Chelsea’s squad features new signings, with players eager to make an impact in this critical fixture to ignite their current season.
