Chelsea vs Wolves Premier League Match Preview or Key Statistics
📊Chelsea are unbeaten in all five of their Premier League home games against Wolves (W4 D1), last losing against them in the top-flight at Stamford Bridge in March 1979 (1-2).
📊Since returning to the Premier League in 2018, Wolves have scored five goals in three Premier League games against Chelsea – more than they’d netted against the Blues in their first eight such games against them (4).
📊When finishing the season at home, Chelsea haven’t lost their final Premier League match since 2001-02 (1-3 vs Aston Villa), winning seven and drawing three since.
📊Wolves have lost four of their five closing day matches in the Premier League, winning the other against Sunderland in 2009-10.
📊Chelsea need just a draw from this game to guarantee a top four finish and Champions League football next season. However, the Blues have lost two of their last three Premier League games (W1), as many defeats as in their previous 11 (W6 D3).
📊Victory for Wolves will guarantee them a sixth place finish this season, their highest top-flight finish since the 1979-80 campaign (6th).
📊Chelsea have conceded 54 Premier League goals this term, only in 1994/95 and 1996/97 have they conceded more in a single campaign in the competition (55 goals conceded on each occasion); indeed, Chelsea have conceded 46% of the shots on target they have faced this season (54/117), the highest ratio in the division.
📊Wolves could become the fourth different side to go through an entire Premier League campaign without any English goalscorers (excluding own goals), after Fulham (2001-02 and 2005-06), Arsenal (2006-07) and Stoke (2015-16). Of those other clubs, only Arsenal in 2006-07 (13) had more different goalscorers than Wolves this season (12).
📊Chelsea striker Tammy Abraham has scored in all three of his league appearances against Wolves, netting six goals in total, including a hat-trick in the Blues’ 5-2 win in the reverse fixture.
📊Raúl Jiménez’s 17 Premier League goals this season have been worth 19 points to Wolves, more than any other player in the competition; indeed, the Mexican has netted eight match-winning goals this campaign, another divisional high.
