Wolves vs Chelsea Prediction Odds: the best Balón Latino options
Gana Chelsea
This seems to be the best time of the season to trust Chelsea, as the hosts’ performance against West Ham was more than alarming. Even though the Blues have fatigue from playing during the week, the recent injection of confidence in the team added to the Nkunku factor should be enough.
More than 2.5 goals
We hope that the match will be full of action in both areas to offer us a good Christmas gift. Looking at Chelsea’s latest results, where there has been no shortage of goals, we can be confident that this trend will continue.
Mark both: yes
Wolves are rarely not comfortable scoring at Molineux, and O’Neil’s side should be confident of extending their scoring streak against a Chelsea side who simply cannot solidify their defensive backline on the road.

The key player: HEE-CHAN HWANG
The Asian market is growing effervescently in Western football and cases like Hwang’s are the best example of this. The South Korean, with extensive experience in Europe, arrived at Wolves in 2021 to lead their forward line, as reflected by his 7 goals. Hwang has not scored in two games and will be in the spotlight in a match of this caliber and context to see what he is capable of against Chelsea’s dubious defense.
Analysis and latest news from Chelsea
After claiming three consecutive away wins between October and November, the visitors have been defeated in each of their last three league games so far, losing to Newcastle, Manchester United and Everton. A defeat on this day could mark a small stain on their history by repeating the unenviable feat of losing four consecutive away games, like in 2000 (a streak of five).
That is why the last two consecutive games at Stamford Bridge suited Mauricio Pochettino and his team in luxury, with victories against Sheffield and Newcastle (in the EFL Cup), with seven goals scored between both games.

The key player: NICOLAS JACKSON
Jackson’s performance has been such this season that he has already equaled Havertz last season and Jorginho in 20-21 as the top scorer in the Premier League, and if he surpasses 16 goals he will be Chelsea’s top scorer since Costa’s 20 in 16-17. Despite showing some aspects in which he could improve, his nose for goal is being notable.
