After a strong run of form that propelled them to second place in the Premier League, the Blues went on a five-game winless streak\u2014three draws and two losses. Their last win was against Brentford in Matchweek 16 on December 15.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The breakthrough came early. Energized by the home crowd, Enzo Maresca&#8217;s side started on the front foot and found the opener in the 24th minute through Adarabioyo following a corner kick. However, what seemed promising soon turned shaky. In first-half stoppage time, Doherty equalized for Wolves, setting up a tense second half.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The visitors came out sharp after halftime, but defensive lapses cost them dearly. In the span of six minutes, Cucurella and Madueke turned the draw into a comfortable victory for Chelsea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\" translation-block\">With this result, Chelsea climbed back to fourth place, overtaking Manchester City with 40 points, two points clear of their rivals. Wolverhampton, on the other hand, remains in a tough spot. Despite initial optimism following V\u00edtor Pereira\u2019s arrival, the team has now suffered three consecutive defeats after two early wins under his tenure.
