Chelsea Faces Wolves in Carabao Cup Fourth Round Showdown

Wolverhampton, England – Chelsea has made significant changes to its lineup for the Carabao Cup fourth round match against Wolverhampton Wanderers this evening.

Filip Jorgensen starts in goal, with Malo Gusto, Josh Acheampong, and Jorrel Hato joining Tosin Adarabioyo in defense. Adarabioyo captains the team tonight, celebrating his 50th appearance for the club.

Romeo Lavia and Andrey Santos are set to play in central midfield, while Estevao, Facundo Buonanotte, and Jamie Gittens lead the attack with Tyrique George at the forefront. Chelsea’s bench features players returning from injury, including Liam Delap.

Enzo Maresca, Chelsea’s manager, is making these changes to protect the squad against further injuries following the team’s recent struggle to maintain a consistent lineup. “We need to rotate, we need to protect players because if we go with the same 11, we’re going to struggle during the season,” Maresca stated during a pre-match interview.

Chelsea aims to secure their spot in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals after a hard-fought 2-1 victory over Lincoln City in the previous round. Wolverhampton secured their place with a win against Everton last month, though they have faced difficulties in the Premier League, currently standing bottom of the table.

Looking ahead, Wolves have also rotated their squad, with goalkeeper Jose Sa and defenders including Matt Doherty and Emmanuel Agbadou starting for them. Both teams are seeking a turning point after poor performances last weekend.

The match kicks off Wednesday evening at Molineux, and fans are eager to see how these tactical changes will impact Chelsea’s performance against a struggling Wolves side.
