Chelsea v Wolverhampton Wanderers
These are tricky times for Wolves. Mick McCarthy's side have not won a league game since the opening day and collide with Manchester City, Manchester United and Arsenal in their three matches after tomorrow's trip to the champions. It must be hard to see light at the end of the tunnel. Their last victory at Stamford Bridge came 31 years ago, and they conceded nine on their last two league visits. They must cling to the possibility that Chelsea's players will be sluggish having not returned to Cobham from Moscow until 3.30am on Wednesday. A difficult afternoon awaits.
