Last time the Blues met a red team, things ended up going in our favour at the very nick of time. How will we fare today?
This Nottingham Forest team has lost most if not all of its steam since last season. Their last win was recorded two months ago against Brentford and since then they’ve endured three draws and six losses. Today’s lineup might be enough to take that loss record to seven.
Nottingham Forest starting eleven:
Sels | Morato, Milenkovic, Murillo, Zinchenko, Douglas Luiz, Anderson, Sangaré, Willians, Gibbs-White, Awoniyi
Substitutes from: John, Jair, Savona, Hudson-Odoi, Ndoye, Domínguez, Yates, Wood, Igor Jesus
Chelsea starting lineup (4-2-3-1?):
Sanchez | Gusto, Acheampong, Chalobah, Cucurella | James (c), Lavia| Neto, Andrey Santos, Garnacho | João Pedro
Substitutes from: Jorgensen, Tosin, Hato, Caicedo, Buonanotte, Estêvão, Gittens, George, Guiu
