Chelsea vs Wolves LIVE updates, confirmed team news and match ... (Football.London)

LIVE: Follow all the action right here as Chelsea welcome Wolves to Stamford Bridge in the Premier League.

football.london's Scott Trotter has done his best at predicting the XI for this afternoon below... Wolves, though, have proved to be somewhat of a bogey side for Chelsea in recent years. Trevoh has been really professional, hard-working in training and his level has been high. In that regard, his performance was a reward of that behaviour. In their way stands a manager-less Wolves side following the sacking of Bruno Lage last weekend. Hello and welcome to live coverage of Chelsea's Premier League clash with Wolves at Stamford Bridge.

Graham Potter makes seven changes to his Chelsea side for today's Premier League meeting with Wolves.

But there’s a long way to go and I think the thing is we have to just focus on the next match. [Cesar Azpilicueta](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/cesar-azpilicueta), [Trevoh Chalobah](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/trevoh-chalobah) and [Marc Cucurella](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/marc-cucurella) join [Kalidou Koulibaly](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/kalidou-koulibaly) in what looks like a back four. [Jorginho](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/jorginho) replaces [Mateo Kovacic](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/mateo-kovacic) and [Conor Gallagher](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/conor-gallagher) is another fresh face in that part of the pitch. So there’s no frustration from my perspective, it’s just something we have to deal with.' He’s still not ready for the weekend but getting closer. 'It’s just a knee strain so there’s a possibility we might see him play against before the World Cup. It’s considerably better than it could be, but he will obviously be missing for a few weeks,' he explained. [Kai Havertz](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/kai-havertz) and [Christian Pulisic](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/christian-pulisic) are the other incomers, with [Mason Mount](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/mason-mount), [Ruben Loftus-Cheek](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/ruben-loftus-cheek) and [Kepa](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/kepa-arrizabalaga) the other three players to keep their place from the win over AC Milan. [Reece James](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/reece-james), [Ben Chilwell](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/ben-chilwell), [Raheem Sterling](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/raheem-sterling) and [Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang](https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/pierre-emerick-aubameyang) are all on the bench.

Chelsea ease past Wolves as Potter's magic starts to work (NBC Sports)

Chelsea breezed past Wolves as Graham Potter secured back-to-back wins in the Premier League to move the Blues into the top four.

Wesley Fofana suffered an injury against AC Milan and after leaving the stadium on crutches and is out for a few weeks. Chelsea travel to AC Milan on Tuesday in the UEFA Champions League group stage, then travel to Aston Villa on Sunday, Oct. It’s still early days in the Graham Potter era at Chelsea but the signs are promising. Raul Jimenez, and Pedro Neto are out, while Sasa Kalajdzic is out for at least six months following his serious knee injury. Wolves in a world of trouble: They were okay for part of the parts half and they missed a few chances as crosses into the box caused problems. Really happy with the boys and how we’ve recovered. Potter’s hybrid wing-back roles worked really well in this game and Azpilicueta and Christian Pulisic had plenty of chances to score and assist. “I’ve said from the start I’ve been impressed with how open, honest and responsible they are. Managerless Wolves have six points and remain in the bottom three. It has done for some time and whoever comes in will have a very tough task to turn this around. They also don’t have a manager and they entire squad looks devoid of confidence. The joy has returned to Chelsea’s play: It took them a while to break through but it was coming.

Christian Pulisic Watch: How did USMNT star play for Chelsea vs ... (NBC Sports)

Christian Pulisic scored his first goal of the season and played a big part, and in an intriguing role, for Chelsea against Wolves.

West Ham also played on the counter but looked more dangerous in the final third with Scamacca and Bowen linking up. Hello and welcome to a beautiful early fall day here at the Emirates! Injuries have made things rather difficult for Jurgen Klopp, but the impending returns of Ibrahima Konate and Andrew Robertson are good cause for optimism as Liverpool try to reverse course and keep within touching distance of the top of the table. He is back on and is going to try and run it off. Arsenal sat back and looking dangerous on the counter with Bukayo Saka causing problems. “Thank you so much to the boys and the supporters. I saw a team with the right attitude and put in a proper fight and play football and first half we did but in the second half I didn’t see these football moments as much. Gabriel’s mistake for the first goal and Saliba being caught out of position for Liverpool’s second proved that Arsenal still have a mistake in them. But on Sunday it was Martinelli and Saka who stole the show. “Arsenal are doing really well and in the situation I think we played a good game. Tottenham didn’t make the most of dragging Saliba and particularly Gabriel out of position on the counter last weekend. When they didn’t they were overrun in midfield and the topsy-turvy nature of this clash reminded me of when Klopp first arrived in 2015 and his high-octane, heavy-metal football was exciting to watch but Liverpool had no balance (especially defensively) whatsoever.
