Home

Nottingham Forest

City Ground, Nottingham

NFO

Nottingham Forest are a mid-table side who are hard to beat at home but can struggle to create against organised defences, which keeps their games tighter.

Away

Chelsea

Stamford Bridge, London

CHE

Chelsea are among the title contenders. Expect them to control possession away at City Ground and push Forest back, so their chance count, and the corners market, tends to run high.

Betting notes

How to bet on Forest vs Chelsea

Four angles to weigh before you place a bet on this fixture.

  1. 01

    The model leans towards goals: over 2.5 at 52% and both teams to score at 56%. Goals markets look sharper than the result here.

  2. 02

    Powerplay247 is an exchange: you can back or lay every market on Forest vs Chelsea and trade out in-play, for example after an early goal, instead of waiting for full time.

  3. 03

    The corners range is 10-13. The favourite tends to win most of them while the underdog sits deep, so team corners can beat the match total.

  4. 04

    Wait for the confirmed line-ups, usually out an hour before kick-off. A missing striker or first-choice keeper can move the goals lines more than the 1X2 price.
