Chelsea team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers

Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Chelsea will be bidding to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they travel to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Saturday afternoon.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their showdown with Wolves, who occupy 14th position in the table.
