Wolves vs Chelsea prediction
Chelsea impressed quite a few with their display against City, taking the game to the champions before eventually going down 2-0 in front of their own fans. Wolves, meanwhile, struggled to lay a glove on Arsenal but will surely improve in their own back yard.
It should be a fairly tight game, and the Blues have shown they have enough about them to take some points with them back down to London. But the hosts have a fine record against the Blues.
Wolves 2-2 Chelsea.
