Current Form
Nottingham Forest are fighting for survival in the Premier League. They got four points deducted for breaching profitability and sustainability rules by federation decision. If they had not been given that penalty, Nottingham Forest would have been safe from relegation. Despite their appeals, Nottingham Forest will remain handicapped. They are currently just 3 points above Luton, who will get relegated if they stay in 18th spot. However, Nottingham has a better goal difference, so we believe that they will stay in the league. The last game they played was last week against Sheffield United. Callum Hudson-Odoi scored a brace as Tottenham took a huge step towards a Premier League stay after defeating already relegated Sheffield United. Before that game, Nottingham had a tough schedule and lost three games. If they were to win today against Chelsea, Nottingham would secure their stay in the Premier League. This will be their biggest game of the season for them, so expect them to give their best on the pitch. The last time Nottingham Forest won their home game was against Fulham over a month ago.
Chelsea are placed in 7th spot, just 2 points behind Newcastle. With only 2 fixtures left, this is a must-win game for Chelsea if they want to keep their Conference League hopes alive. They were at the middle of the table for the most part of this season, but with their recent two wins, the Blues have now put together a run that has just a single defeat in their last 12 Premier League games. However, Mauricio Pochettino needs to stay calm as they remain winless in their last five away league games. They will be under pressure as they lost their last head-to-head game against Nottingham Forest 0-1. We believe that the Blues will be confident as they absolutely dominated in both London derbies against Tottenham and West Ham. The last game they played was against West Ham at Stamford Bridge. Nicolas Jackson scored a brace and led them to a 5-0 victory at home. Cole Palmer also scored yet again and has equaled the record for the most Chelsea goals scored at Stamford Bridge in one Premier League season.
Best Bet to Make
Looking at their recent run, we believe that Chelsea are in great form with still a lot to play for. They are overall a better team, and we believe that they will revenge themselves against Nottingham Forest tonight.
That being said, Chelsea winning is a value bet.
