Wolves vs. Chelsea, League Cup: Confirmed lineups; how to watch
Welcome to the fourth round of the Carabao Cup, with Chelsea taking on Premier League-strugglers Wolverhampton Wanderers at Molineux. Domestic cups may be our best opportunity for silverware this season, so despite the expectation rotation, we should be fully focused on getting through to the next round.
Given Wolves massive struggles so far this season — just two wins in all competitions, both in the League Cup — that should be two wins in the bag for us. Of course, we know that’s not how it works, especially given our frustrating habit of playing up or down to the level of the opposition.
A dramatic late winner moved the newly promoted side to second place in the Premier League with more weekend action to come
Chelsea are making plans to hire Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola in the ‘near future’ with Enzo Maresca now on ‘thin ice’, according to reports.
Enzo Maresca remains unconvinced over Robert Sanchez and Filip Jorgensen as the Blues No.1 despite the former showing improved form this season. Sanchez has stepped up in key moments, but consistency remains an issue for the Span international, as shown by his red card against earlier in the campaign.
Enzo Maresca has admitted that he had to make tactical changes early in the last couple of Premier League games after being caught by surprise by opponents.
