Wolves vs Chelsea Prediction & Betting tips
With Wolverhampton and Chelsea, two losers of the last matchday meet. After the failure of their best scorer Raul Jimenez, the home side suffered a setback for the second time in a row and had to admit defeat to Aston Villa on their own territory.
For their part, the Blues failed once more at Goodison Park near Everton and lost with the same result. For the upcoming match between Wolverhampton and Chelsea, the tip is aimed at an away win without conceding a goal. Spectators are not admitted to the encounter.
Wolverhampton :
The Wolves are currently experiencing the expected slump. Apparently, the Wanderers cannot compensate for Raul Jimenez’s failure. Furthermore, the team still looks shocked in view of the serious injury, the Mexican broke his skull on the third last day of the match against Arsenal.
After a subsequent 4-0 at Anfield Road, the home game against Aston Villa was lost last Saturday. Truly not a stable opponent, as the previous bankruptcies against West Ham and Brighton showed.
The fact that it is currently not enough even against lightweights gives the home side little hope against the background of a much more difficult task. The problems with the Wanderers currently also affect the defense. In this season, three games with at least three goals conceded were recorded.
This number is already higher than after the final account for the past season. However, the results on their own territory are more positive than in the guest appearances: an average of one goal was conceded per game in the local Molineux Stadium – shared top value with the Spurs and Reds in a league-wide comparison.
In addition, eight clean sheets have been collected across the seasons in the past 14 home games. Above all, the defensive work in the second half of the game can be expanded: Ten of the 16 goals conceded this season were conceded after the break!
The Wanderers have powerful defensive players like Willy Boly, who is among the top 10 in the Premier League in terms of the number of duels he has won, but other players in the defensive network often have room for improvement at the moment.
To make matters worse, the Portuguese Joao Moutinho was sent off in the match against the footballers from Birmingham, which further weakened the defensive midfield. In addition, Jonny, a normally set defender, is once again unavailable due to an injury.
Chelsea :
Chelsea are now becoming a serious contender for the title. It is not only the numerous expensive purchases on the offensive that give this status, but also a clearly better defense. The new saddle strength in defense is again due to a single transfer that took place at the end of September.
We’re talking about the new keeper Edouard Mendy. The Senegalese came from the Bretons from Rennes and immediately proved themselves in the Premier League. In 12 league games, the goalkeeper of his country’s national team won an impressive five clean sheets – one of the top scores in the Premier League.
In addition to the good placement as fifth in the league with only three points behind the top, Chelsea were no less convincing in the premier class. As the first in the group, the ticket for the round of 16 was successfully obtained. Most recently, however, there was a setback in the top British league.
The Lampard-Elf had to admit defeat in Everton with 0: 1. An unnecessary setback, because the Londoners provided the better team, but this time appeared unusually harmless in the end.
In view of the weak offensive of the home side and their still quite stable defense on their own territory, the odds of a maximum of three hits until the final whistle are also interesting in Wolverhampton’s game against Chelsea.
