Chelsea will look to make it four wins on the bounce when Wolves visit Stamford Bridge on Super Sunday.
Since their defeat to Manchester City in the Carabao Cup final, Maurizio Sarri has steadied the ship and put together four straight wins including last weekend's 2-1 victory over Fulham.
Chelsea have lost just one of their last 53 home Premier League games against newly promoted teams (W44 D8), although Wolves did register a shock victory over Sarri's side in the reverse fixture earlier this season.
Rui Patricio will return for Wolves, manager Nuno Espirito Santo has confirmed.
The goalkeeper was replaced by John Ruddy in Saturday's 2-0 win over Cardiff to give the 32-year-old game time before next week's FA Cup quarter-final with Manchester United.
But the Portugal international will be in goal at Stamford Bridge.
Nuno said: "It was very clear. The decision was made and I was very clear in my intention.
"I was pleased because John performed very well. John was very confident and he was very stable, which is what we were looking for. Now we play Chelsea, we focus on this game."
Eden Hazard and N'Golo Kante are among the players likely to return after head coach Maurizio Sarri rotated his squad in the Europa League.
Sarri has no apparent injury concerns, with defender Antonio Rudiger and striker Gonzalo Higuain also expected to be recalled following Thursday's 3-0 victory over Dynamo Kiev.
Pedro could retain his starting spot after impressing against Kiev, but fellow winger Callum Hudson-Odoi, who came on to score in that game, may once again have to be content with a place on the substitutes' bench.
Ryan Bennett misses out for Wolves as he starts a two-game ban after collecting 10 yellow cards with Romain Saiss expected to drop into defence.
It will be an interesting game. Chelsea will have played in the Europa League and compare that to Wolves, who will have had a week's break. Chelsea need to win this for the top four, but if you are not getting in there, you have to make sure you have got a nice buffer for the Europa League places and they need to keep in both at the moment.
PAUL PREDICTS: 2-1 (15/2 with Sky Bet)
