The East Midlands side is floundering near the relegation zone, sitting 17th with a meager five points from six games. Postecoglou’s arrival has failed to spark a turnaround, leaving the club in genuine danger of dropping out of the Premier League. His winless streak has now stretched to seven matches across all competitions (0W-2D-5L), making him the first permanent Forest manager in a century to go winless in his opening six league games. Owner Evangelos Marinakis, known for his short leash with managers, reportedly toyed with the idea of cutting ties during the October international break.

Chelsea, meanwhile, travel to the City Ground with renewed confidence under Enzo Maresca. The Blues snapped a two-game skid before the break with a dramatic 2-1 win over Liverpool, a result that provided a timely morale boost. Maresca will be without the influential Palmer this weekend, meaning Fernandez is likely to keep his advanced role as Chelsea look to maintain momentum and extend their winning run.
