Since returning to the Premier League in 2022, Nottingham Forest are unbeaten at Stamford Bridge and they will hope to preserve that record and boost their survival hopes when they face Chelsea on Monday (15:00 BST).
These two sides could not be in more contrasting form. Forest are unbeaten in their last six league games, with only Brighton picking up more points than the relegation-threatened side’s 12 since the start of March.
However, the hosts have lost and failed to score in each of their last five league games, a run that saw Liam Rosenior's spell at the club come to an end. Chelsea have not lost six in a row since November 1993 and have never lost that many in a row without scoring in their league history.
It is a massive chance for the Tricky Trees to push further away from the drop zone after their impressive 5-0 thrashing of Sunderland. However, they won’t be sitting comfortably just yet, as relegation rivals West Ham and Tottenham won their games last Saturday to leave the table as it was before the weekend’s results.
Chelsea did manage to arrest their sliding form with a confidence-boosting 1-0 victory in the FA Cup semi-final against Leeds United under the stewardship of interim boss Calum McFarlane. He proved himself earlier this season by guiding the side to a surprising draw at Manchester City after Enzo Maresca’s sacking.
