Chelsea's performances have oscillated recently but they can't afford to lose these types of fixtures if they wish to be taken seriously in their bid to finish inside the top two English teams this season.
Here are my Chelsea v Wolves predictions and free betting picks for Monday, January 19.
Premier League predictions for Chelsea vs Wolves
My best bet:
Over 3.5 goals (-107 at TonyBet)
My analysis
Chelsea have scored at least two goals in nine of their last 11 home matches against Wolves in all competitions. The West Londoners have seen over 2.5 goals being scored in five of their last six matches against Wolves. As numbers clearly demonstrate, the games between these two sides are rarely uneventful in front of goal.
Chelsea and Wolves have interests at different ends of the table this season but that shouldn't interfere with the game's dynamics. Both teams are desperate for points. Chelsea wish to head back into the Champions League, while Wolves need to start winning fast if they don't want a hard end to their campaign.
Chelsea are winless in five consecutive Premier League games and have dropped to fourth in the table. On the other hand, Wolves, after they had some fresh life injected by new manager Vitor Pereira, have twice lost 3-0 in their last three matches, against Forest at home and Newcastle away. There have been over 2.5 goals in ten of Wolves' previous 11 games, so it's safe to say they play an open game, in spite of their situation in the standings.
I'll opt for the over 3.5 goals this time, at -107 via TonyBet. Note that the over 4.5, which also sounds tempting to me, is now at +204.
Chelsea vs Wolves same-game parlay (SGP)
Over 3.5 goals
Under 5.5 cards
Nicolas Jackson anytime goal
Referee Simon Hooper, who will take charge in this match, hasn't shown more than five cards in any of his previous ten games in all competitions. Yes, it will be a match with contacts, but given the attacking profiles both teams have it's easier to think they will concentrate on creating more than focusing on destroying.
Nicolas Jackson scored nine goals in 20 Premier League games this season but hasn't hit the net for more than a month now, despite being given a leading role by manager Enzo Maresca. It's high time for him to recover his productivity and the game against Wolves should offer some decent chances for the African striker to shine again. and get his name on the scoresheet.
