Nottingham vs Chelsea Match Preview And Prediction
Nottingham vs Chelsea: Chelsea defeated West Ham last Sunday with five goals in a row. Out of the last 12 league games, the Blues have only lost once. During the Hammers’ crushing defeat the previous weekend, Nicolas Jackson finished with a brace.
The final Premier League match of the day at The City Ground will feature Nottingham Forest and Chelsea. It promises to be an interesting match. After winning last weekend, both teams are feeling positive going into the tie. Which one of the two will support those this time?
Last weekend, Nottingham Forest secured a crucial three-pointer by capitalizing on their matchup with Sheffield United, who are now at the bottom of the league. At Bramall Lane, a 3-1 victory put the Reds three points clear of the drop zone. The work is not finished yet. It will take something exceptional to claim a victory over a Chelsea team that is playing well.
Following their 5-0 thrashing of West Ham last Saturday, Chelsea are on a high. Nicolas Jackson led the way with two goals and an assist, and other standout performers included Cole Palmer and Noni Madueke. In seventh place, Mauricio Pochettino’s team is now tied with Manchester United in terms of points. At this stage, European football might very well be within their grasp.
Nottingham vs Chelsea: Betting Analysis
In the rematch at Stamford Bridge in September of last year, Nottingham Forest shocked Chelsea 1-0. Only 8 of the last 34 away games between Chelsea and the Reds have been wins. Three or more goals were scored in just one of the previous five head-to-head encounters between these rivals.
Chelsea is currently enjoying a winning streak. Out of their last 12 Premier League games, they have only lost one. They thrashed London rivals West Ham at home last Sunday, scoring five goals in a row. For the Blues, it was their third clean sheet in their previous five league games.
Though they did defeat Sheffield United 3-1 seven days ago, Nottingham Forest’s recent performance has been significantly weaker than Chelsea’s. Three of the previous five league games were losses for the Reds. Even though the hosts really need the points, we think Chelsea will win at these 1.95 odds.
Nicolas Jackson finished with a brace in the Hammers’ crushing victory over the previous weekend. In this Premier League season, he has scored thirteen goals. In the last 12 games across all competitions, Nottingham Forest has failed to maintain a clean sheet in one. We think it makes sense to take Jackson at the generous 2.75 odds to score at any time on Saturday.
Nottingham vs Chelsea: Head-To-Head
Who will win the match between Nottingham and Chelsea?
Although we believe Nottingham Forest has enough to go past this Chelsea team’s defense, one goal probably won’t be as many as they have scored against them. As a result, we predict that Chelsea will win by a significant margin in the end. It’s a very difficult decision.
Our Prediction: Over 1.5 Goals
