Wolverhampton Wanderers will be looking to avoid ending a 52-year streak when they square off against Chelsea in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

Wolverhampton Wanderers will be looking to avoid ending a 52-year streak when they play Chelsea on Saturday afternoon.

The West Midlands outfit make the trip to Stamford Bridge occupying eighth place in the Premier League standings, three points adrift of seventh-placed West Ham United.

However, Bruno Lage's side have posted seven defeats in 10 league games, many of those losses coming against teams who sit below them in the table.

Furthermore, Wolves' last three encounters have ended in defeat without getting on the scoresheet, those setbacks coming against Newcastle United, Burnley and Brighton & Hove Albion.

Should Lage's side suffer the same fate at Stamford Bridge, it will represent the first time since 1970 that Wolves have endured such a run in the top flight.

In total, Wolves have failed to score in 16 Premier League fixtures this campaign, the second-worst return behind already-relegated Norwich City.
