Chelsea
While Mateo Kovacic's legs were able to handle 45 minutes at Goodison Park, the Croatian came on to replace Jorginho, with Tuchel admitting that he "had to take" the midfielder off in the loss to Everton.
Jorginho has now been ruled out of this clash alongside N'Golo Kante, while Andreas Christensen and Ross Barkley ought to be back from respective illnesses.
Ben Chilwell and Callum Hudson-Odoi continue their spells out of action for the Blues, and Tuchel is sure to consider freshening up the attack with either Christian Pulisic or Hakim Ziyech after last weekend's profligacy.
Chelsea possible starting lineup:
Mendy; Azpilicueta, Silva, Rudiger; James, Kovacic, Loftus-Cheek, Alonso; Mount, Pulisic; Havertz
Wolverhampton Wanderers
As for Wolves, Lage has been dealt a killer blow with the news that right-back Nelson Semedo will miss the rest of the season with the thigh injury that he picked up in the early stages of the second half against Brighton.
Daniel Podence and Maximilian Kilman are keeping Semedo company in the medical bay, with the latter also out for the remainder of the campaign, but Ruben Neves's half-time withdrawal last time out was pre-planned after his recent layoff.
Fabio Silva's half-time change last time out was a tactical one, though, and the youngster will certainly expect to make way for Raul Jimenez this week, while there could also be a spot in the first XI for Pedro Neto.
Furthermore, Lage will also not be on the touchline for Wolves this weekend after returning a positive COVID-19 test.
Wolverhampton Wanderers possible starting lineup:
Sa; Boly, Coady, Saiss; Jonny, Neves, Moutinho, Ait-Nouri; Hwang, Jimenez, Neto
Prediction: Chelsea 2-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers
