The Blues returned to winning ways with a 1-0 win against Leeds in the FA Cup semi final at Wembley, but are in desperate need of three points in the league.

Chelsea have lost their last five league games without scoring, and currently sit eighth, ten points adrift of Aston Villa in the final Champions League place.

Interim head coach Calum McFarlane will take charge of his first game at Stamford Bridge, with Forest also in need of points to guarantee their survival.

Chelsea have been handed a boost with Reece James and Levi Colwill both back in full training, and they could be part of the squad for the game.

With just four games remaining the pressure is on, and the Blues have won just six league games at home this season.

Forest may have half an eye on the second leg of their Europe League semi final against Villa next week, and Merson has given his prediction.

“Chelsea reached the FA Cup final last weekend,” he told Sportskeeda.
