The hosts come into this game in poor form, with just one win in their last five league games and are currently on a two game losing streak. That includes a recent defeat to Aston Villa last round which sees Nuno's side sitting in 13th place in the table. And to make things worse, Wolves will have to make do without the services of key striker Raul Jimenez, who suffered a skull fracture due to a collision during the team's match with Arsenal recently and will be out for at least until after the New Year.
Meanwhile, Chelsea's long-standing unbeaten run came to an end as they were beaten 1-0 by Everton last weekend. Prior to that, the Blues were on a 14 game unbeaten streak across all competitions, and looked like the favorites to depart Goodison Park with all three points in hand. However, new shot-stopper Edouard Mendy, who has been in fine form all season, made a rare mistake that gifted Everton a spot-kick and thus ultimately ended up being the deciding factor of that match. As a result, Chelsea, who could have temporarily jumped to first spot in the table, have now slipped down to fifth place, with Everton now having closed the gap on them to two points.
The loss also marks the first defeat in the league for Chelsea since they were beaten 2-0 by Liverpool in September, and certainly they will be looking to rebound here. Tuesdays tend to be good days for the London giants, who have lost just one of their last 20 fixtures played on this day, and moreover, they have not had too many issues finding the back of the net against their upcoming hosts. In 16 of their last 17 meetings, they've scored, and in fact, this same fixture last season saw a whopping seven goals shared between the two sides as Chelsea eventually came away with a 5-2 win.
Wolves: The hosts will be missing Joao Moutinho due to a ban, while Raul Jimenez remains out following his surgery due to a skull fracture sustained earlier this month. In addition, Jonny is still recovering from a knee injury.
Chelsea: Hakim Ziyech and Callum Hudson-Odoi are still continuing their recoveries from hamstring injuries, but American star Christian Pulisic should make his return for this match after resuming training recently.
