Home / Football / Blues Set For Three Points At Molineux

Wolves v Chelsea odds give home side little chance

Wolves entertain League leaders Chelsea at Molineux this weekend hoping and praying that they can avoid the same fate that was dished out to them when the two teams met earlier this season at Stamford Bridge. In that match, played in November, Chelsea won by 4-0 with goals coming from Michael Essien (2), Joe Cole and Florent Malouda. That is just one of the reasons why Chelsea have been made 3/10 odds on favourites to win this match with Bet365 who also quote a best price of a draw at 4/1 and a very unlikely Wolves win at 11/1.

As unlikely as a Wolves win might be, Mick McCarthy and his team will take heart from the fully deserved 1-0 win they achieved over Spurs last weekend, with a goal that will certainly be a candidate for the team goal of the season. Wolves proved that when they have the ball they can play some excellent football, but they will know that is what they are going to have to do if they are to get anything from this game.

Chelsea meanwhile will want to forget their recent defeat away at Everton, it was a loss that gave great incentive to Man Utd who are now just one point adrift of the ‘Blues’ at the top of the table. Chelsea will know that a similar slip up will pass the initiative back to United, which is something that they will struggle to get back.

It is why we cannot see beyond a Chelsea win here, but we do not think it will be a landslide however. It is hard not to notice that Wolves have only scored a paltry 10 goals at home in the Premier League this season and coming up against one of the very best defences in Europe will not do their strike force any favours. We therefore believe that Chelsea will keep a clean sheet and will be good enough to score at least once, the bet for us therefore would be a 2-0 Chelsea win with odds of 5/1 and we would also be tempted to double that up by backing the in form Didier Drogba to score the first goal with odds of 10/3.
