After a not-so-convincing start to the season, Chelsea's form slowly improved and at the moment they seem like a very stable team that is destroying everything in front of them. They have been playing fantastic lately and in the last 5 games they have won all 5 with as many as 17 goals scored. In the last match they beat Gent 4-2, and it is important to mention that Chelsea played that match with a changed lineup. Almost no player who plays matches in the Premier League was on the field from the first minute. Of course, Gent can hardly match Chelsea, but achieving such a sure victory without the main players is certainly commendable. Now they have the opportunity to continue with a series of good results and welcome Nottingham Forest to their home ground. They play particularly well at home, where they won 12 out of 15 games played. In as many as 10 of those 15, they scored 3 or more goals. However, given the style of football played by Nuno Espirito Santo, one should not expect a match with a large number of goals. Nottingham is in the middle of the table, realistically speaking without any great chances to get one of the places that leads to Europe, but they have enough quality not to find themselves in the fight for survival. They play perhaps the least attractive football in the entire league, as evidenced by their goal difference after 6 matches played. They scored 5 and conceded 6 goals and only once so far have more than 2.5 goals been seen in their matches. I believe that despite the defensive game of the visitors, Chelsea will manage to break through that wall and win 3 new points and thus stay only 2 points behind the leading position, which at the beginning of the season was hard for anyone to imagine.

在本赛季不太令人信服的开局之后，切尔西的状态慢慢好转，目前他们似乎是一支非常稳定的球队，正在摧毁他们面前的一切。他们最近踢得很好，在最近的5场比赛中，他们赢了5场比赛，进了17个球。在上一场比赛中，他们4-2击败了根特，值得一提的是，切尔西在那场比赛中更换了阵容。在英超比赛中，几乎没有球员在第一分钟就上场了。当然，根特很难与切尔西匹敌，但在没有主力球员的情况下取得如此稳操胜局的胜利确实值得称赞。现在他们有机会继续取得好成绩，并欢迎诺丁汉森林来到他们的主场。他们在主场打得特别好，15场比赛中赢了12场。在这15个进球中，有10个进球超过3个。然而，考虑到努诺·埃斯皮里图·桑托的足球风格，人们不应该期待一场进球很多的比赛。诺丁汉目前在积分榜中游，现实地说，他们没有太大的机会获得通往欧洲的席位之一，但他们有足够的实力不陷入生存之争。他们踢的足球可能是整个联赛中最不吸引人的，6场比赛后的净胜球就证明了这一点。他们进5球失6球，迄今为止只有一场比赛进球超过2.5球。我相信，尽管客队踢得很防守，切尔西还是会设法突破这堵墙，赢得3分，从而只落后领头羊2分，这在赛季初是很难想象的。
