Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest Prediction

Managerless Chelsea might be out of the race for the Champions League places, but the Londoners still need a strong finish to the campaign if they are going to secure European football of any kind for next season.

Visiting Nottingham Forest aren't safe from relegation just yet, but they also have a huge Europa League semi-final 2nd leg against Aston Villa next week and may have one eye on that game this weekend.

Over 2.5 goals have been produced in five of Chelsea's last seven outings in the Premier League, and while the Blues have struggled for goals of late, we're expecting that to change under a new system now that Liam Rosenior has been sacked.

Five of Nottingham Forest's last seven league games have also witnessed at least three goals, and the relegation-battlers are undefeated in their last six matches.

Chelsea haven't managed to keep a single clean sheet in their last 12 Premier League games and have conceded at least two goals in six of those matches.

Both teams have scored in four of Forest's last seven in the league, and the visitors have managed to score at least two goals in five of those seven matches.

Chelsea 2-2 Nottingham Forest
