Confirmed Officials: Chelsea vs Wolves | Premier League

The officials have been confirmed for Chelsea’s Premier League clash against Wolves at Stamford Bridge on Saturday afternoon.

Chelsea host a Wolves side who have only won one game this season which came against Southampton last month. They are yet to win on the road this season, while Chelsea haven't lost at home this term.

Graham Potter's side are unbeaten since the start of September in the league, not losing since the 47-year-old's arrival prior to their draw against RB Salzburg in the Champions League.

What has been said ahead of the game?

Graham Potter has been pleased with the progress that's been made since his appointment. Chelsea are closing in on the top four places, but the head coach insists there is still a long way to go despite the improvement.
