Liam Delap could return from his injury layoff when Chelsea travel to Wolves in the Carabao Cup on Wednesday, and Enzo Maresca has hinted that he'll name a much-changed line-up

Chelsea are looking to bounce back in midweek after a shock setback in the Premier League over the weekend. Enzo Maresca's travel to face Wolves in the fourth round of the Carabao Cup on Wednesday night (October 29) after losing 2-1 to newly promoted Sunderland at home on Saturday (October 25).

Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca admitted he must continue to “protect players” if they are to remain battling on all fronts this season. The Blues head to Wolves on Wednesday in the Carabao Cup fourth round looking to produce a response after their winning run was ended by a last-gasp Premier League defeat to Sunderland at Stamford Bridge.

“You can’t do that” – Paul Merson hits out at Chelsea ace as he names player they need “back badly” Delap has been a big miss and hopefully his return will also see an improvement in the performances of Pedro who’s really struggled recently.
