Chelsea will kick off Gameweek 8 in the Premier League when they visit Ange Postecoglou’s struggling Nottingham Forest on Saturday lunchtime.
Chelsea are searching for a third successive victory in all competitions after wins against Benfica and Liverpool, with Enzo Maresca’s injury-stricken Blues heading to the City Ground as significant favourites given Forest’s dismal form.
The Tricky Trees have failed to win any of their seven games under Postecoglou and have taken steps backwards since the surprise dismissal of Nuno Espírito Santo. Another defeat this weekend for the Australian coach could see him given his marching orders after just a month in the job.
Success is crucial for both sides this Saturday, with supporters able to tune into the drama live around the world.
