Wolves face another daunting schedule if Nuno Espirito Santo's non-stop team reach the Europa League final and Chelsea win the FA Cup

Wolves will have a break of just 27 days between the end of this season and the start of next if they reach the Europa League final and Chelsea win the FA Cup.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s non-stop team are still involved in the 2019-20 Europa League, where they face Olympiacos in next Thursday’s last-16, second leg tie at Molineux, and would qualify for the 2020-21 competition through finishing seventh in the Premier League - as long as Chelsea beat Arsenal at Wembley on Saturday.

Yet if that is the case Wolves, whose 2019-20 campaign began on July 25 last year, would once again start their Europa League campaign at the second qualifying round.
