Match PreviewSaturday's goal rush is set to witness a potential thriller between Wolverhampton Wanderers and Chelsea - two sides oozing quality on paper but not reflecting the same on the pitch due to their respective reasons.While Wolves are win-less this season so far despite having salvaged crucial points against the likes of Manchester United and Leicester City. Meanwhile, Chelsea, undergoing serious transition under new boss Frank Lampard, must sort out their defensive woes as they presently concede an average of three goals on their away days.Wolves did hold the upper hand over Maurizio Sarri's side last season, accumulating four points from their two Premier League games against the Blues. Another astonishingly disappointing statistic for Chelsea has been their form on the road in 2019, as they have collected just three victories in the same period - all against newly-promoted oppositions
