Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Stale Solbakken urges his team to put up a fight against Chelsea in their League Cup clash at Stamford Bridge this evening.

Wolverhampton Wanderers manager Stale Solbakken believes that it is important for his players to head into tonight's League Cup clash against Chelsea "without fear".

The 44-year-old comes up against Premier League opposition for the first time since taking over at Molineux in the summer and the Norwegian is confident that his side will put up a fight.

"It's important they don't have any fear and they trust their ability and their teammates and try to make a good game of it," Solbakken told the Express & Star.

"It's important we play without being naive and that we stick to our tactics and play in a disciplined way without fear."

Wolves travel to Stamford Bridge for this evening's encounter.
