Gianluca Vialli's time as player and manager at Chelsea

Chelsea will attempt to return to winning ways when they head to Wolverhampton Wanderers on Sunday afternoon. Thomas Tuchel’s team drew with Everton last time out and have tasted victory just twice in their last five Premier League games, falling from first to third in the process.

Injury absences have taken a toll in midfield, but the Blues now trail leaders Man City by four points and need a return to consistent performance levels to reignite their title challenge over the busy Christmas run of games.

Wolves, meanwhile, are in eighth place and among the group of teams hoping to battle it out for European places, with goalscoring still a real issue for them but their defensive work more impressive - only the top three have conceded fewer than Bruno Lage’s side this term. Victory at Brighton last time out leaves them four points off West Ham in fifth as they look for a return to the Europa League.

Full-time: Wolves 0 - 0 Chelsea

90+3 mins: Wolves will be happy with that! They’ve taken a point off Chelsea with a very good performance at home. Bruno Lage’s men were the better team in the first half-time but couldn’t get going in the second. Chelsea threw a lot at them but they held strong and kept the Blues out.

Thomas Tuchel won’t be happy. It’s another two points dropped by the Blues and they’re now six points behind the league leaders Manchester City. Is their title race over already?

84 mins: Wolves’ last shot came in the 43rd minute. They haven’t had one in the second half and are firmly settling for a point now. Traore chases down a clearance but gets beaten to the ball by Rudiger. He looks for a pass out of his own final third but Traore is on top of him quickly and Rudiger boots the ball into the stands for a Wolves throw in.

81 mins: Adama Traore has been introduced by Bruno Lage replacing Daniel Podence for the last 10 minutes or so.

Raheem Sterling has added a fourth for Manchester City against Newcastle. The hard work was done by Gabriel Jesus who brought the ball in from the left wing, shifted away from a defender and put it on a plate for Sterling to tap in from inside the six-yard box.

79 mins: Save! Christian Pulisic is denied by Jose Sa. Pulisic breaks into the box from the left and is closed down by the Wolves defenders but not before he squeezes off a right-footed shot towards the back corner. Sa covers the distance and sticks out his left hand to stop the ball and deny Chelsea an opener!
