FRANK LAMPARD will have little room to manoeuvre as he seeks to refresh his misfiring attack for the clash with Wolves.
Chelsea have failed to score from open play for two games in a row and have a number of injuries to contend with.

Callum Hudson-Odoi, Hakim Ziyech and Christian Pulisic are all set to miss the Molineux match-up on Tuesday.
A hamstring injury kept the American out of the defeat at Everton with his two wide colleagues set for longer spells on the sideline.
All three have leg muscle injuries with both Hudson-Odoi and Ziyech likely out until the turn of the year.
That could keep Kai Havertz in the line-up despite his disappointing showing at Goodison Park.
Lampard has called for ‘patience’ with the young German following his big-money move from Bayer Leverkusen.
The manager said: “In the modern day, there is going to be criticism for every player of every club who loses a game.
“We should be patient with Havertz from a Chelsea end because he is a top-quality talent who has come into this league.”
Tammy Abraham was a substitute on the weekend and is vying with Olivier Giroud for the central starting berth.
Having earned a run in the side with his four-goal salvo against Sevilla, the Frenchman may find himself back on the bench after a scoreless trip to Merseyside.
In midfield, Matteo Kovacic and Mason Mount will be looking over their shoulder.
Jorginho and Billy Gilmour are primed to enter the team if Lampard chooses to do make a change.
Cesar Azpilicueta and Antonio Rudiger can step into the defence if required but it is considered less likely that Lampard will drop any of his first-choice backline.
