Wolves vs Chelsea injury news with eight out and one doubtful

Frank Lampard takes his Chelsea side to Wolves this weekend as he looks to help his former club return to winning ways. The Blues have brought back their former midfielder and manager after their decision to sack Graham Potter.

They drew 0-0 last time out at home to Liverpool. Here is a look at some of the latest injury news regarding them and their next opponents...

Chelsea remain without striker Armando Broja and he is poised to miss the rest of this season which is a blow as they continue to lack a cutting edge up front.

Cesar Azpilicueta and Thiago Silva are also out of action still. Goalkeeper Marcus Bettinelli has also emerged a potential doubt, with Edouard Mendy now back on the bench. Speaking after the stalemate against Liverpool at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday night, Bruno Salter, who took caretaker charge of that match, said: “All fit, just Bettinelli is doing some recovery but the rest are fit.”

As for Wolves, they are in a relegation battle and need to start picking up some more points to avoid getting sucked into the bottom three. Attacker Hwang Hee-chan is back fit which is good news for them after he picked up an injury on international duty with South Korea.

However, key midfielder Ruben Neves has accumulated 10 yellow cards so is now suspended along with defender Jonny. The Midlands club are still without striker Sasa Kalajdzic and midfield duo Chiquinho and Boubacar Traore as they remain in the treatment room.
