Defeat can be vital for Ange Postecoglou
The Greek-Australian coach of Nottingham Forest, Ange Postecoglou (60 years old), has yet to achieve his first victory on the bench of the “foresters”
. In the previous 7 stages, Forest recorded 5 defeats and 2 draws.
The team is in 17th place with only 5 points and the supporters have already shown their displeasure. Another defeat could increase the pressure on the technician.
Chelsea, good morale after the success against the champions Liverpool
Chelsea are coming off the back of a 2-1 win over champions Liverpool at Stamford Bridge and will be hoping to capitalize on the good morale.
The London team has so far achieved 3 wins, 2 draws and 2 defeats in the championship.
Defensive problems continue and the trip to the City Ground is a tough test, especially as Chelsea have won just 3 of their last 14 away games in the Premier League (D4 L7).
Before the stage, the team occupies the 7th place, with 11 points.
In the last direct duel, played on May 25, 2025, Chelsea won 1-0 away at the same City Ground.
