Nottingham Forest Dey Fight, Chelsea Go Show Dem Pepper?

Nottingham, England – Ange Postecoglou don dey optimistic sey him team go fit shine before dem face Chelsea for City Ground this Saturday. E don try seven matches since him take over from Nuno Espírito Santo but e still never catch win – na im be first coach for Forest wey do am since 1925 (talk about record breaking!).

Right now, Nottingham Forest dey sit for 17th position, just one small point above relegation zone. But you fit understand sey dem dey pray make Postecoglou fit deliver him first victory, though dem go need higher powers as Chelsea dey come with plenty experience.

You fit ask, why the wahala be like this? Na because Postecoglou no fit beat Chelsea for him previous four matches when e dey Tottenham. Na only four coaches don ever lose dem first five matches against Chelsea, and dem no too fine sef: Rafael Benítez, Mick McCarthy, Tony Pulis, and Owen Coyle (baba, this one no dey make sense!).

“If people wan judge me after three weeks and half for seven matches, no be me go fit change wetin dem go talk,” Postecoglou yan. “But I dey enjoy the fight. I no wan make anybody give me anything free, I go fight for my own.” Now see as e dey try tell una say no be every day be Christmas.

Hope don show face for Nottingham as Chelsea dey battle injure players from international break. Cole Palmer, Andrey Santos, and Tosin Adarabioyo dey sidelined. Reece James sef don carry injury from Liverpool match, no forget Enzo Fernandez wey don withdraw from Argentina team too. Plus, Enzo Maresca go miss the match due to red card for his last match (no be easy at all!).

For Forest, Callum Hudson-Odoi na player make dem dey watch. He dey try outshine as the top chance creator for the team this season with nine chances, and e don even score before against Chelsea this season. Chelsea go still need Moises Caicedo wey don show serious potential, scoring three goals for the league and dominating tackles.

Prediction for this match? E fit be wey Chelsea go take the day again. Dem don win three of dem last four matches against Forest (one draw). But e no too dey easy to collect wahala from Forest, wey don miss am for dem last five games against Chelsea, just one win dey there sef since 2023.

With all this drama, Nottingham Forest fit struggle to score like this no go be first time, dem fit carry this pain pass wey una no go like. Dem dey face serious problem for home games as dey don lose five out of dem last seven (Omo, wah!).

Opta probability dey show chance wey Forest get na 27.8%, draw na 24.1%, while Chelsea dey hold 48.1%. Na serious game wey we all dey expect make e ginger us for this weekend.”
