Chelsea set for big injury boost for Wolves clash

Delap set to face Wolves?

Chelsea are set for a big injury boost ahead of the Carabao Cup fourth round tie against Wolverhampton Wanderers on the road on Wednesday.

The Blues recently suffered a big setback in the Premier League as they suffered a 2-1 defeat to newly-promoted Sunderland at Stamford Bridge.

As a result, they have dropped to ninth in the league standings and are currently eight points behind Arsenal, who are top of the table.

They will be aiming to return to winning ways against Wolves in midweek. Ahead of the game, the Blues are set for a timely selection boost.

Liam Delap returned to full training from a lengthy hamstring injury last week, but he did not make the matchday squad against the Black Cats.

However, he is expected to be involved in some capacity against Wolves. The Blues fans will want nothing less than a victory on Wednesday.

Wolves are presently bottom of the pile in the Premier League with two points from nine games. Chelsea are clear favourites to beat them.
