Chelsea return to Premier League action on Saturday following the October international break, travelling to the City Ground to face an out-of-sorts Nottingham Forest side.
The Blues floundered during September but ended the month with a crucial victory against former manager José Mourinho and his Benfica team, before kicking off October with a crucial late victory over reigning Premier League champions Liverpool.
Confidence should be relatively high heading to Ange Postecoglou’s strugglers, although a stream of significant injuries will make life more challenging for Enzo Maresca in the Midlands. The Italian will be without a host of crucial first-teamers for the weekend’s early kick-off.
Here is how Chelsea could line up on Saturday.
