• Daniel Pondence thought he had broken the tie's deadlock in the first half but his effort was ruled out for offside
• The draw left the Blues six points off leaders Man City who saw off Newcastle at St. James Park

Chelsea's Premier League title hopes have suffered a massive blow after being held to a 0-0 disappointing draw against Wolves.

The Blues were hoping to return to winning ways after dropping points against Everton in their last outing.

However, Thomas Tuchel's charges were unable to redeem themselves during their trip to Molineux on Sunday, December 19, as they fired blanks to settle for a barren draw.

The west Londoners went into the clash off a serious COVID-19 crisis that saw a number of key players sidelined.

Tuchel named a strong team for the nonetheless which was still held to a second successive draw.
