Chelsea travel to Wolverhampton Wanderers in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup in the midst of a topsy-turvy run of form. Last weekend, they were stunned at Stamford Bridge by Sunderland, which means they've got three wins and two losses in the last five games since their narrow third round win away at lower league Lincoln City.

The Wolves vs Chelsea fixture is set for Wednesday, 29 October 2025, with kick-off at 19:45 GMT at Molineux Stadium in Wolverhampton. Wolverhampton: Johnstone, Doherty, S. Bueno, Krejci, H. Bueno, Munetsi, Andre, Joao Gomes, Arias, Larsen, Gomes.

Chelsea striker Joao Pedro said he was relieved to end his goal drought but not overly concerned about his numbers, insisting that team success is his priority after netting the winner in Saturday's 1-0 Premier League win at Tottenham Hotspur.

They got a second through David Moller Wolfe, who popped up at the back post to capitalise on some nervy Chelsea defending, and the home side’s hopes only grew when the returning Liam Delap was sent off for a second yellow card after he elbowed Yerson Mosquera.

Chelsea held off a second-half comeback against a spirited Wolves to book their place in the Carabao Cup quarterfinals with a 4-3 win. Enzo Maresca's side, featuring 10 changes, looked like sweeping to a handsome victory as they coasted into a 3-0 half-time lead thanks to goals from Andrey Santos, Tyrique George and Estêvão.
