Chelsea vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers, Premier League: Live blog; highlights

Chelsea can finish this long weekend back in fourth place with a win against relegation battlers Wolverhampton Wanderers, but to do that we need to break our five-game winless streak in the league. Unfortunately, the opposition encountered during the race has not been the toughest, so we will have to really pull together today.

Due to injuries and such, Enzo Maresca has had to call on a few names from the B squad today, but Palmer has been passed fit and starts. Enzo, Lavia and Colwill all miss out, with Dewsbury-Hall and Trevoh Chalobah coming on. Welcome back, Trev!
