Nottingham Forest have won just one of their last eight Premier League meetings with Chelsea (D3 L4), a 1-0 victory at Stamford Bridge in September 2023.

Chelsea have won three of their last four Premier League away games against Nottingham Forest (D1), including both of their last two in a row. The Blues have never before won three successive away league games against the Tricky Trees.

Nottingham Forest have lost four of their last five Premier League games (D1), failing to score in each defeat. The Tricky Trees could fail to score in three consecutive matches in the top-flight for the first time since April 1999.

Chelsea have won just three of their last 14 away games in the Premier League (D4 L7). Indeed, in 2025, just 27% of their points have come away from home (12/45) – the lowest ratio of any ever-present side in the top-flight.

Nottingham Forest have lost five of their last seven Premier League home games (W1 D1), as many as their previous 22 at the City Ground beforehand (W11 D6). The Tricky Trees could lose three successive home league games for the first time since December 2023 (a run of 4).

No side’s Premier League games this season have seen more goals than Chelsea’s (22 – 13 for, 9 against), with 13 of those coming in their away games (8 for, 5 against); only Burnley’s matches on the road have seen more (17).

Only Manchester City have had more 10+ pass sequences in open play (118) and build-up attacks (41) in the Premier League this season than Nottingham Forest (108 sequences, 29 build-up attacks). In 2024-25, Forest ranked third-lowest for 10+ pass sequences, and had the second-fewest build-up attacks.

Four of Chelsea’s eight away goals in the Premier League this season have been scored from corners. This is as many goals from corners as they scored on the road in the whole of last season’s competition.

Nottingham Forest’s Ange Postecoglou lost all four of his Premier League meetings with Chelsea as Tottenham Hotspur manager. The only managers to lose each of their first five games against Chelsea in the competition are Rafael Benítez, Mick McCarthy, Tony Pulis, and Owen Coyle.

Chelsea’s Moisés Caicedo has made more tackles (28) and more interceptions (18) than any player in the Premier League this season. Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest’s Elliot Anderson has won possession 55 times in the division this term, also a league-high tally.
