At Stamford Bridge on Friday, 8 November 2025, Chelsea look to steady their form against struggling Wolverhampton Wanderers in the Premier League.
Pick: BTTS – Yes
Despite Chelsea’s stronger form, both teams’ recent defensive fragility suggests goals at both ends are likely.
Chelsea: Strong Overall, but Vulnerable Defensively
Enzo Maresca’s side continue to dominate possession but often concede soft goals due to lapses in concentration and high defensive lines. Their recent 2–2 draw at Qarabağ and the 1–2 home defeat to Sunderland exposed those issues again. Still, they’ve won six of their last eight matches, finding the net consistently through Nkunku, Palmer, and Mudryk. Chelsea tend to react well after a setback, but clean sheets remain rare - they’ve conceded in eight of their last nine fixtures in all competitions.
Wolverhampton: Desperate for Positives
Wolves remain bottom of the table and without a single league win after ten rounds. Their defence continues to leak goals - 23 conceded already - but they’ve also scored in four of their last five away matches across all competitions. Even when outplayed, they find moments of direct danger through Cunha or Sarabia. Their 3–4 cup loss to Chelsea showed that they can trouble the Blues’ back line.
