Chelsea vs Wolverhampton Wanderers
Wolves came from behind to lead Chelsea 2-1 in the first half at Stamford Bridge. The hosts dominated possession in the early stages and took the lead through Palmer, who netted his 10th goal of the season. The Blues combined with a neat passing move before Caicedo played a pass down the right side of the box to Palmer. The former Manchester City man kept his composure in front of goal, slotting his effort into the bottom-left corner. However, the hosts weren't ahead for long. Gomes won possession off Caicedo and rolled a pass over to Cunha on the left. The Brazilian moved inside before seeing his shot deflect off Silva to beat Petrovic. Sterling then lashed a strike well off target from a tight angle before O'Neil's men took the lead. Pedro surged down the right and sent a cutback into Ait-Nouri, whose shot from close range went in off Disasi for an own goal.
