Under 2.5 goals

Prediction

  • Chelsea extended their winning run to five matches with a 4-2 Conference League win over Gent on Thursday. The Blues look unstoppable going forward having scored 16 goals in their last four matches.
  • Nottingham Forest fell to their first league defeat of the season last weekend as they fell to a 1-0 loss to Fulham. Nuno's side are unbeaten away from home this season, which includes a fine 1-0 win at Liverpool.
  • Forest are unbeaten on their last two trips to Chelsea, but with the Blues in such rampant form; the hosts should head into the international break on a high.
