Chelsea vs Wolves rocked by security alert with supporters blocked from stadium | Football | Sport

But the broadcaster have since claimed that there is no longer the expectation that kick-off will be delayed, after the security alert was promptly dealt with.

Players from both sides are thought to have already travelled to the ground and are unaffected, but fans are still attempting to access the area around Stamford Bridge and have been met with delays.

Chelsea made two changes from the 4-1 defeat at Anfield to face Wolves, with Malo Gusto and Christopher Nkunku starting in place of Benoit Badiashile and Noni Madueke. Pablo Sarabia, Rayan Ait-Nouri and Joao Gomes come in for the visitors.
