Another exciting Premier League fixture will take place at Stamford Bridge in London, where Chelsea will face Nottingham Forest.
Chelsea’s recent form has been nothing short of disastrous. Last week, the team suffered their fifth consecutive defeat, this time losing 3–0 away to Brighton & Hove Albion.
The visitors, in contrast, are coming into this match in high spirits. Strong results in recent games have allowed Nottingham Forest to move further away from the relegation zone. Moreover, they recorded dominant wins in their last two matches — beating Burnley 4–1 and Sunderland 5–0.

Prediction for the Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest
Considering the current form of both teams, it would be fair to say that Nottingham Forest might even have better chances of getting a positive result. However, Chelsea remain one of the top clubs in English football, with a squad capable of deciding matches through individual quality.
This is a slightly risky pick, but I suggest going for a Chelsea win.
