Football commentary
Recently, Chelsea surprisingly reappointed Frank Lampard as interim coach until the end of the 2022-2023 season after sacking coach Graham Potter. Thus, the Chelsea legend once again sits in the "hot seat" at Stamford Bridge. In 2019, he also sat in this position, before being sacked in 2021.
Surely Chelsea owners and fans expect the return of coach Frank Lampard to bring a "new wind" to The Blues. However, everything will not be easy. Excluding the Champions League, Chelsea is in poor form in the number 1 tournament in England. Accordingly, they have only won 3/14 recent rounds in 2023, drawing 6 and losing 5. The most recent draw against Liverpool means Chelsea is still in 11th place in the rankings, but has played at least one more match than the 6 teams above.
On the other side of the pitch, Wolves are still stuck in the relegation battle in the Premier League this season, just 1 point above the relegation zone. Before hosting Chelsea, the "Wolves" had a 1-1 draw at Nottingham Forest - one of the weakest defenses in the league.
In terms of squad quality, Chelsea is certainly rated much higher than Wolves. However, the question is whether Chelsea can make a difference in other matches or not, it will have to wait for the "hand" of coach Frank Lampard.
Overall, The Blues need to try to win all the remaining matches of the season to keep their hopes of reaching the top of the European Cup next season alive, while their opponents also have to make efforts in the relegation battle.
The match between Wolves and Chelsea will take place at 9:00 p.m. on April 8 (Vietnam time).
