Wolves v. Chelsea | PREMIER LEAGUE HIGHLIGHTS | 4/8/2023 | NBC Sports

And the same back four and goalkeeper for Lopetegui. When you look at that midfield four, just look at Podenc on the left side. He's the most likely of the midfield players to get forward, having scored a club-high six goals. But Wolves are the joint lowest goal scorers in the Premier League, with just 23. Kunja and Diego Costa will have to find their form fast if Wolves expect to get something from Chelsea, having scored just one goal between them. Yeah, Diego Costa, of course, against his old team, with whom he won two Premier League titles. Chelsea, under Frank Lampard, for the first time in this era. Yeah, and in his first team, he changes the formation at the back. He switches to a back four, which we know he's comfortable with. When you look at that midfield three, it's not a surprise for me that Gallagher's in there and starts for Lampard. He'll provide energy and industry. It's important that, as a unit, those three work hard. And I think Gallagher will be the one that leads in charge. On the left-hand side, Raheem Sterling, passes fit from a hamstring injury that's kept him out for the previous three games up top. Havertz, as a lone striker, he has a club-high seven Premier League goals. And look who's back on the bench. Number nine, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang. Kukure looking after Kilman. Dawson just behind. And there's Toti's header, which bounced just in front of Aretha Balaga. Yeah, that was a better corner for him. Wolves putting it deeper, allowing Wolves' centre-backs and Toti, who's playing left-back today, to get that first contact. And then they can get runners into the box. Ferenc for the corner. Probably had it covered. I think it's Rhys James on both occasions. Gets the header in first. And then it's flying through bollards and it wasn't Rhys James. It's Fafnir again who gets the touch. Diego Costa won the header. Here's Labina. Pedence. Looking for Diego Costa. Came away off Koulibaly. Front. Chance. Brilliant finish. And Wolves have the advantage. Stunning goal. Oh, my days. What a hit from Mateus Nunes. Wolves fans have been waiting for him to make his introduction into the Premier League. And he's just done it. Technique. Perfect. Doesn't snatch it. He waits for the moment. Waits for the ball to drop. And then he arrows a thundered right-foot shot into the top corner. A sensational strike from the Portuguese man. Lift-off inside Molyneux. Superbly struck. Just beyond the half-hour mark. And Wolves take the lead. It seems to turn up and put in a performance as the team's around and they've really struggled against it. Fafnir looking for two. Diego Costa. Pedence. Labina. It's going to be a yellow card for Labina. Cluttering into Michel Félix. Yeah, he's lucky not to have already been booked Mario Labina as the third tackle he's made. Kovacic. Stunning touch from Rhys James there to pull it out of the air. But this is what Chelsea are going to face now. Jair Félix. As I was saying, this is what Chelsea are going to face now. Lots of old gold shirts in their way. Jair Félix shifting it onto his right foot. It's a good hit. He strikes it well. Straight down the throat of José Sarr. Easy for the Portuguese keeper. Joao Gomes. Another goal scorer. Nunes. Small challenge by Kukeré. Provoked a wail of protest from the Wolves players and their head coach. New card is now being produced. Kukeré, it looks like he got the ball but it's more the manner. The lunge. Leaving the ground. Studs up. Catches. Mateus Nunes. Chelsea looking to turn the screw. Jair Félix is becoming more and more into this game. Lovely little flick around the corner. It's a nasty one. From Jair Gomes. Catches him high up on his kneecap. Breaking his studs down. Don't think there was a lot of intention there but it would be really sore for Jair Félix. Wolves come right the way through. Cunha worked that really cleverly. Wolves worked that cleverly. But now they've committed so many forward they might be caught out on the counter. Sterling. Ryan Sterling dragging back Cunha. Cunha playing as a more number 10. It really suits him. He drops into pockets really well to get into that space. Used experience to calm the Wolves team down. He'll go into that number 10 position. Greated room for the shot and then couldn't keep it down. The initial work from Cunha was very good. Getting himself that half a yard. Shifting onto his right foot. He had options in the box. Marilu Mina had made the run. Mangy Chano had just come on as well. He's got to try and cut that back. It's such a difficult angle to try and score from there. But the initial work was excellent. Stans Koulibaly up. Goes past him but the wrong decision. Kovacic. Jair Félix. By Dawson who was caught by Galla. The card is produced. Galla just tried to get his body in front of Craig Dawson and then Craig Dawson kicks through the back of him. Maybe a bit harsh on Galla to pick up a booking on that occasion. James at Bamiyang. He's been leaned on by Nelson Samedo who's a glimmer of a chance of release now for Chelsea. There's an opportunity. Good movement from Bamiyang but excellent defending from Nelson Samedo who tracks him all the way. He just comes off the blind side of Samedo but Samedo recovers really well. Doesn't allow Bamiyang the opportunity to get a header on target. Samedo got the final touch as well so Wolves got away with a goal kick. Enzo Fernandes. Rhys James. They bump forward for Chelsea. Kovacic goes over and Chilwell is asking the question whether or not they should have a penalty here. It's a really clever run from Rhys James from outside to in. Enzo Fernandes picks him out as it comes into the box. Chelsea just hoping it'll drop to Christian Pulisic. Good block from Craig Dawson and it just doesn't quite fall his way. There's not enough contact to be worthy of a penalty but better from Chelsea. Said Rhys James staying high and wide then all of a sudden making that darting diagonal run in behind the Wolves defence. Kovacic. Joe Gomez has got to be careful because he is one of those who's on a yellow card. A card has been produced for Kovacic for his response. Joe Gomez has to be careful not only with his tackle but handling his emotions. So getting away of the free kick after it being given could have quite easily seen Peter Banks pull out a second yellow card towards him. Gallagher inside the six yard area. Easily dealt with by Jose Sarr and the whistle's gone. I'm not sure on that. Like it was shoulder to shoulder. The strength from Hwang seems to be too much for Koulibaly. Definitely not a foul. Chelsea have got away one there because Wolves are in. To hold his left hamstring here's Gallagher. Still well for an over the shot. Always going high and wide. Big opportunity for Chelsea. Mateus Nunez taking too long on the ball. Nice interlicking from quick play. Just feel Ben Chilwell on that occasion takes the wrong option. Lashes at the ball goes high and wide but could have taken a touchdown and overload outside him. They could have created a better opportunity. Chilwell pace on the cross and it deceived everybody. It's gone out for a Wolves throw on the far side and it gives them time to make their change. Chelsea worked this really well. Frank Lampard had been wishing he was on the pitch to get right down the middle of that six yard box. It would have been a tap in for a Chelsea player if they had really committed themselves across. It's a good ball in by Ben Chilwell. Unfortunately for these Chelsea fans no attackers took the gamble. Five additional minutes at the end of the 90. We're going to get a couple of minutes more I imagine. In his last two games at Marlin you have certainly been eventful giving the red card as a substitute in that fractious 4-2 defeat at home to Leeds United. It was later rescinded. A brilliant goal in the first half and now off forced off. It's taken a moment and Magic 2 put his goal side ahead. What a hit from Mateus Nunez. One of the goals of the season. So he's played his part. He's had a good game. The goalscorer in considerable pain. It's been a painful watch for Chelsea supporters home and away this season particularly on their troubles. Wolves happy to get up the pitch. Happy to keep Chelsea penned in their own half. Just listen to the roar. Three vital points for Wolverhampton Wanderers as they scramble to get clear of the bottom three. It's elevated them to mid-table. every weekend on USA Network and on Peacock. We will see you over there.
