Both Nottingham Forest and Chelsea are aiming for a place in the Champions League next season. In which Chelsea has the advantage as they are currently 5th in the rankings. With just a draw, The Blues will complete the goal.
In contrast, Forest must win and hope that at least one of the two teams Newcastle or Aston Villa do not win in the final round. The home side no longer have the right to decide for themselves even with 3 points at the City Ground, when they are 7th in the rankings, 1 point behind Chelsea.
But regardless of the results, Forest will definitely have tickets to the European Cup and record the highest position in the Premier League since the 1994-1995 season (when they ranked third). If reaching the top 5, Forest will return to the top European tournament for the first time since 1980-1981.
It will certainly not be easy for The Blues to get points against Forest. Chelsea have also failed to win in their opening three away games of the season, losing 0-3 to Newcastle in 2017-18, drawing 0-0 with Leicester City in 2018-2019 and losing 1-2 to Aston Villa in 2020-21.
