Wolves 2-1 Chelsea Final Thoughts...
Pedro Neto in the 95th minute wins it for Wolves!!

Half time thoughts...
In the second half, Wolves will continue to sit back and look to hit Chelsea on the counter attack, where as the visitors will look to take the game to Wolves.
It will be an interesting second half.

Nuno Espirito Santo Pre-Match Thoughts...
"The quality, and the experience of Joao [Moutinho] is important, but Ruben [Neves] is experienced as well. This is the reason we have a squad."
"Last time out, we played well but didn't get the result. We are against a good side again tonight, but it is about the performance - we have to compete."
"Fabio [Silva] shouldn't think about scoring, he needs to think about doing his tasks and helping the team."
Frank Lampard Pre-Match Thoughts...
"Pulisic brings us width and the ability to go past people in the wide areas."
"It is going to be a tough game tonight. We lost the game last time out and we want to win to get ourselves back on track."
"Everyone is struggling in this period of time, we've got players out especially going forward."
FUN FACT!!
How will the home side get on tonight?
What a way to get up for it!!
Your #PLonPrime midweek feast starts right here!

Nuno speaking before the game on the two different systems Wolves use.
"We are trying to build an idea that can give us other options, even to try and adapt during matches.
“It’s something I really want. Success can come in different ways. As long as you prepare them, and this is what we’re working on, trying to prepare better for our immediate future. It’s about getting different solutions inside the squad, so we can compete better game by game.
“We are working very hard every day with the players, no matter what system we’re going to play. We are improving players, we are trying to make players better. Those that were here before, that that are arriving, it requires a different idea and we look for it.”
Just the one change for the blues!
A midfielder out, and an attacker in... it looks like Frank Lampard could be going for it tonight.
The back 5 is back!!
Adama Traore drops to the bench as Willy Boly comes back into the side. Ruben Neves replaces Joao Moutinho as he is out due to suspension.
Fabio Silva and Nelson Semedo keep their places in the side.
