Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest: Can the Blues Extend Their Winning Streak Against Tricky Forest?

Chelsea, riding a five-match winning streak across all competitions, host a battle-hardened Nottingham Forest side at the Stamford Bridge in a Sunday Premier League classic.

Chelsea will seek to build on their recent momentum, while Forest aim to recover after their narrow defeat to Fulham last Saturday.

🔵Chelsea Look to Continue Red-Hot Form | Home Win = 1.50💵

Chelsea’s overall form has been ‘wow’, but amidst all that, it’s their attack, led by English lad, Cole Palmer, that seems to be on a different dimension at the moment, netting 16 goals in their last four matches alone.

Enzo Maresca’s side are the talk of the English football world alongside a few for their 4-2 wins over Brighton last Saturday and Gent in the UEFA Europa League, last Thursday.

That said, this is the EPL and the Italian manager and his team would have to forget those wins and go again against a very tricky Forest side that knows a little something about causing upsets especially if they’re serious about fighting for top 4.

🔴Forest Seek Resurgence After First Loss of the Season| Away Win = 6.59💵

Forest’s trip to London comes on the back of a 1-0 loss at home to Fulham, ending their unbeaten start to the season with what was their very first defeat this season. 

On the back of that, Nuno Espirito Santos and his team would want to make things right in their next game, which just happens to be against the most in-form team in the league at the moment, Chelsea.

While Forest have been solid on the road, winning two of their last three away league matches including one over Liverpool at Anfield, they will need to sharpen not only their attack but their defence too, coming up against a team scoring for fun like Chelsea.

🔑Key Players & Team News📰:

Chelsea will miss Captain Reece James and Omari Kellyman, but their huge squad depth should see them not miss any of those two. Pedro Neto, who starred for the Blues midweek, could start alongside Palmer and Jackson.

Nottingham Forest are missing Ibrahim Sangare and Danilo, while Gibbs-White's return could provide a much-needed boost to their creativity in attack. Former Chelsea Player, Hudson-Odoi, could be given the nod to exact some revenge.
