Wolves - Chelsea review: Welcoming Lampard back to The Blues

VIỆT HÙNG |

After more than 2 years since being sacked by Chelsea, Lampard played the "fire-fighting" to help the team once again in difficult times. The True Blues are waiting for a completely different face for their beloved team in the Wolves match.

Chelsea need to stabilize again in the Premier League

In theory, Chelsea have a chance to end the season in the Top 4. However, the rate to achieve that is extremely low because the current position is too bad, the team's performance is declining and especially the opponents are getting stronger.

What Chelsea need to aim for now is a ticket to the Europa League. This could be more possible and there is nothing to be ashamed of because in recent seasons, The Blues have also played the Europa League many times.

Chelsea need the Premier League to stabilize the team before aiming for higher goals next season after pouring about £500 million in the last 2 transfer windows.

The person given this responsibility is Frank Lampard, as the former Blues captain did in his previous term. Lampard may not be famous on the coaching bench, but if he needs someone to " put on the fire" for Chelsea, Frankie is always ready.

The rest of the season for Chelsea will not be too difficult if the goal is reasonable. The Wolves game will mark Lampard's return and, instead, it will not be too difficult for Chelsea to reduce their determination to win 3 points despite playing away.

If they leave Molineux with 3 points, The Blues will have more motivation to aim for the first leg of the UEFA Champions League quarter-final against Real Madrid - an arena where they are determined to play with everything they have to create a miracle. At least, The Blues want to repay the debt they borrowed from Real last season.

Wolves need 3 points to be solid in the relegation race

Since Crystal Palace is in 12th place, all remaining teams in the bottom of the rankings have not blocked, or at least have a high chance of staying in the league. Wolves are the same, they have only 28 points after 29 matches and are only 1 point better than the team in 17th place, Bournemouth.

This means that if the "Wolves" lose to Chelsea and Bournemouth beat Leicester, danger could come. The Molineux home ground will be the fulcrum for Julen Lopetegui and his team to try to win all 3 points.

Witnessing Chelsea's performance this season, Wolves are not unconfident in setting such high goals. Although the away team has just changed coaches and spirit has been renewed, playing well immediately is almost impossible.

Wolves need to take advantage of the time the opponent is transferring to achieve the goal. If they meet Chelsea in the next few weeks, unfortunately Lampard is in a corner like in the first "fire-fighting" match, Wolves will find it difficult to defeat this opponent.

His form will be something Lopetegui needs to improve immediately. Wolves have only won 1/5 of their most recent matches, both at home and away. If they want to stay in the Premier League, they need to take the match against Chelsea as a stepping stone to bounce.

The match between Wolves and Chelsea will take place at 9:00 p.m. on April 8 (Vietnam time), live on K+.
