Chelsea predicted XI as Thomas Tuchel expected to make changes against Wolves

Wolverhampton Wanderers come into this weekend's game against Chelsea short of form, but then again so are the hosts.

Bruno Lage's men have just one win in their last five Premier League matches. Last week's 3-0 defeat to Brighton was not only a a big setback for their European hopes, it's threatened to put a different gloss on what has been an otherwise good campaign.

It was the culmination of a very strange past month for Thomas Tuchel's charges. Reaching the FA Cup final and beating Southampton by six goals were causes for celebration, but they were also knocked out of the Champions League by Real Madrid and have won just twice in the last five league games.

In the background the sale of the club rumbles on; reports that a deal was getting closer have been rocked by the suggestion that Roman Abramovich wants his £1.6billion loan to the west London outfit paid off as part of any takeover. The saga is clearly having an effect on the pitch.
