Chelsea hosts Nottingham Forest in the English FA Cup 1/32 finals. The match will be played on Sunday, January 5th at Stamford Bridge (London)
Chelsea shows rather controversial results in recent meetings. The man of Frank Lampard started the season well, but now the Pensioners’ game is unstable and the team does not show a decent result every time. In the last round of the Premier League, the Blues defeated Arsenal London away (2-1). Jorginho and Abraham scored goals in the last 10 minutes of the meeting and brought that victory. The real failure was waiting for Chelsea in the match of round 21 against Brighton, where the Blues tied (1:1). The team opened the scoring in the 10th minute (Azpiliqueta scored) but could not develop success, having conceded a goal in the second half.

Nottingham Forest has a glorious past, but now the Foresters only dream of the elite of English football. Although this season the Reds added quite well, and now the team can compete for the Championship playoffs. Forest showed a streak of three victories in a row and took the fourth place in the standings. In the last match, the Foresters beat Blackburn at home (3:2). Nottingham played counterattack football, having given the ball to an opponent. Sabri Lamouchi's strategy worked, as the opponent did not keep pace with the high-speed flanks of the hosts. Lolley and Grabban (double) scored for the Foresters.
Despite the imbalance in the game, Chelsea is still one of the best English clubs, which can reach the supreme goals. Nottingham Forest is among the leaders in the Championship, but the Foresters are still very far away from the level of the Premier League teams. Therefore, the Pensioners will win in the head-to-head match, and the team must calmly defeat the opponent, without too much effort. Bet: Chelsea to win with a -2 handicap.
Prediction for the match: Chelsea to win with -2.0 handicap
