Chelsea play host to Crystal Palace in the Premier League on Wednesday evening looking for the win that will keep them in the top half of the standings.
Meanwhile, Palace - who sit in 15th position - make the short trip to Stamford Bridge sitting just four points adrift of their upcoming opponents.
Poor decision-making in the first half, most notably from Raheem Sterling in a three-on-one situation, kept Wolves in the game at half time, and the home side took full advantage after the break.
Although Christopher Nkunku netted his first Chelsea goal deep into added-on time, it proved no more than a consolation as Chelsea lost for the eighth time in 18 Premier League fixtures under Mauricio Pochettino.
Eight points adrift of the top six, the West Londoners are already at a stage where they need to start putting a run of wins together to avoid the realistic possibility of focus on winning the EFL Cup or FA Cup in order to secure a route into Europe.
