Nottingham Forest vs Chelsea Preview

Even though both sides are assured of European football next season, the one prize they really want is a place in the lucrative Champions League.

There is a scenario where both would miss out with a draw and an Aston Villa win, which is certainly possible given three of the last five matches have ended with a point apiece.

If this match was taking place earlier in the season you would give Forest a real chance of springing the upset, but their form in the run home has been spotty at best.

However Chelsea have not been all that strong on the road, with just 25 points from 18 games away from Stamford Bridge, so they are far from certainties.

There is always one strange outcome on the final day and the draw that helps nobody certainly falls into that category.
