Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest Prediction & Betting Tips - Premier League
by Steve Ashfield in Premier League Predictions
Chelsea begin the weekend fourth in the Premier League after six matches. They look to get a fifth league win of the season when hosting tenth placed Nottingham Forest on Sunday afternoon.
The big-spending Blues lost their opening league match of the new season when being beaten at home by Manchester City. They've since won four of the five Premier League matches that have followed and are only two points off the top of the table at the start of the weekend. They are also the top scorers in the league with 15 goals scored in their last five fixtures.
Nottingham Forest have made a bright start to the new season. The Reds have only lost one of their first six fixtures, that was last week when being beaten at home 1-0 by Fulham. With a league win already this season at Liverpool, they may well put up a good fight against Chelsea. Find out more in our match prediction.

Chelsea - Nottingham Forest: Form Analysis
Chelsea play a fourth successive home fixture and have scored 13 goals in the last three. There have been big wins over Barrow, Brighton and Hove Albion and most recently Gent in the Conference League. They lost their first home league game of the season to Manchester City but since then have drawn with Crystal Palace and last weekend defeated Brighton and Hove Albion 4-2 with Cole Palmer scoring all their goals.
Only the top teams have been beating Chelsea.
The loss to Manchester City is their only defeat in the Premier League in their last 12 games. Just two of the last 21 have been lost in the top flight with the other loss being to Arsenal. Only one of their last ten home league fixtures has been lost.
Nottingham Forest have earned nine points from their first six league fixtures and are six points above the bottom three. They have only won two of their six games but both came on the road at Southampton and Liverpool. They have gone two games without a win with just one victory in their last five games in all competitions. Only two goals have been conceded by them in away league games this season, both at Brighton.

Chelsea & Nottingham Forest Squad Analysis
Chelsea beat Gent 4-2 in the Conference League on Thursday. A totally different starting line-up was fielded by the Blues for that game and yet more changes are going to take place for this Premier League game against Nottingham Forest.
Palmer will be back for the Blues.
The players that helped them to a 4-2 home win over Brighton are fully expected to be back in the starting line-up for this match. That will include four-goal hero Cole Palmer who is not in their Conference League squad. He'll be going all-out to make it goals in three consecutive league games for his team.
Nottingham Forest will have Morgan Gibbs-White back in their team for this game at Stamford Bridge. He was absent from last weekend's home loss to Fulham due to suspension after being sent off against Brighton and Hove Albion. Forest don't have any other injury problems but will still be without Ibrahim Sangare and Danilo.
