The Blues are currently on 13 points after six games and can reduce the gap to leaders Liverpool to two points by beating Forest.

Formation: 4-2-3-1

Predicted Line-up:

Robert Sanchez made a couple of high-profile errors last weekend, but he is expected to keep his place in goal once more.

In front of him, it should be a familiar looking back four. Malo Gusto and Marc Cucurella are likely to feature in the full-back roles with Wesley Fofana partnering Levi Colwill in central defence.

Moises Caicedo and Enzo Fernandez are expected to feature as the defensive midfielders. Cole Palmer was sensational last weekend with four first-half goals against Brighton . He will start in the number 10 role.

Elsewhere, Noni Madueke and Jadon Sancho are set to start on the right and left wing respectively with Nicolas Jackson leading the line ahead of Christopher Nkunku due to his superb league form.

Predicted Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1): Sanchez; Gusto, Fofana, Colwill, Cucurella; Fernandez, Caicedo; Madueke, Palmer, Sancho; Jackson.
