Premier League Predictions and best bets: Wolves can stop untrustworthy Chelsea

Our betting expert Jones Knows provides his insight as Chelsea host Wolves on Monday Night Football looking to snap a five-game winless run.

Chelsea vs Wolves, Monday 8pm, live on Sky Sports

Chelsea were excellent in forward areas against Bournemouth and really should have been out of sight rather than desperately chasing an equaliser.

Nicolas Jackson is holding them back in his current form as the inconsistencies about his finishing are once again starting to being talked about.

He's without a goal in his last five games despite taking 16 shots and posting an expected goals figure of 2.21. In terms of his big chances, he's missed five.

His form does temper my enthusiasm for backing Chelsea here, who are of course on a winless run of five games in matches they've gone off odds-on to win against Everton, Fulham, Ipswich, Crystal Palace and Bournemouth.

They are an expensive side to follow, meaning Wolves, with Matheus Cunha hopefully back, on the double chance at 2/1 with Sky Bet does seem the sensible way to play the outright.
