That's all from Stamford Bridge today, so thank you for joining us and goodbye!

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

17:11

While Chelsea visit Bournemouth when the Premier League action resumes after the upcoming international break, Nottingham Forest will host Burnley.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

17:10

Through a combination of some heroic defending and an ability to take their chance when it transpired, Nottingham Forest pull off their first win at Stamford Bridge for almost three decades, consigning Chelsea to a second Premier League defeat of the season. Substitute Elanga applied the finishing touch to a backs-to-the wall display, which saw the home side fail to make total domination of the ball pay. It's just Forest's second away victory since returning to the top flight last year, and they leave London with all three points.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

17:04

FULL-TIME: CHELSEA 0-1 NOTTINGHAM FOREST

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

17:03

Having received the ball from Disasi just outside the box, Sterling drags a shot well wide of the target - surely that's Chelsea's last chance gone?

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

17:01

Yellow Card Matthew Charles Turner

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

17:01

SAVE! Sanchez has to make a sharp stop at his near post, after Elanga tricks his way past Mudryk on the left and then shoots hard at goal from the byline! Kouyate was free in the centre, but that was almost a stunning solo goal.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:58

Jackson is outnumbered on the right side of the area, but does well to earn his team another corner. Mudryk's outswinging delivery is then headed clear by Wood.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:57

In the second of at least eight minutes added on for stoppages, Chelsea continue their relentless presssure on the Nottingham Forest area. Just a short while for Forest to hold out now, and they'll win at Stamford Bridge for the first time in 29 years.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:56

It's more or less a siege now, as the 10 red shirts of Forest's outfield players all sit back inside their defensive third. Time's running out for Chelsea, but they just don't have a focal point for all their patient build-up.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:54

Yates is back on his feet and able to continue, as Maatsen drives a speculative low shot into a gaggle of defenders. Mudryk then narrowly fails to latch on to a ball towards the left byline.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:52

After Silva sees his close-range shot from a tight angle diverted behind by Turner, Chelsea continue to apply pressure following the subsequent corner. However, Mudryk's rather desperate strike from distance hits Yates on the head, and the game is brought to a halt as the Forest man receives treatment.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:48

Yellow Card Nuno Albertino Varela Tavares

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:48

MISS! Summing up his miserable game, Jackson fires over from close range! After Palmer releases Sterling into the area, the latter's pass is then prodded over at full stretch by the misfiring striker! What a golden opportunity spurned! Are Chelsea destined for defeat?

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:45

At the end of a rare counter-attack, Elanga finds a yard of space on the left byline, but his cutback is misplaced and is easily fielded by the waiting Sanchez.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:44

Maatsen's low cross from the left picks out Jackson in the area, and despite the latter's tumble to the turf no penalty is awarded. He has certainly struggled to impose himself on proceedings today.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:40

Gusto earns his team a corner-kick on the right, which is taken by Fernandez. Then, at the third attempt, Forest manage to clear their lines through a combination of Kouyate and Gibbs-White.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:40

Substitution Malo Gusto Mykhailo Mudryk

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

Substitution Moisés Isaac Caicedo Corozo Ian Ethan Maatsen

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:39

A clever clipped ball into the box by Palmer is met by a run from Fernandez, but the latter can't bring the ball under his spell and it drifts harmlessly out of play.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:35

Substitution Temitayo Olufisayo Olaoluwa Aina Cheikhou Kouyaté

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:35

Madueke manages to reach the right byline but then delays just a fraction too long and is swamped by three Nottingham Forest defenders. There's no doubt the visitors' back five will be lauded if they can pull off a backs-to-the-wall victory today.

Substitution Orel Johnson Mangala Nuno Albertino Varela Tavares

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:35

Substitution Sèrge Alain Stéphane Aurier Gonzalo Ariel Montiel

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:32

Sanchez is fortunate to avoid calamity, as he hurls his throw-out straight at the back of a retreating Gibbs-White, who is then just unable to turn in time and capitalise on such a gift.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:29

Substitutes Palmer and Madueke are both involved in a long Chelsea move that ultimately ends up coming to nothing, as the home side struggle to break through against a determined Nottingham Forest rearguard action.

Having fallen one goal behind, Chelsea are flooding forward now and are totally bossing the ball: they have had no less than 75 per cent possession since half-time.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:24

Yellow Card Ryan James Yates

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:22

A heavy first touch from Jackson allows Boly to execute a last-ditch tackle, after the striker was sent through on goal by a perceptive pass from Fernandez, who is growing into this game as an attacking presence.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:20

After a penalty claim for a possible handball by Worrall is waved away by the referee and also ignored by the VAR, Chelsea make do with just a corner-kick, from which Disasi heads over the crossbar.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:19

A superb pass by Fernandez finds Chilwell on the left side of the area, but the wing-back's low cross from the byline is then cut out by a desparate Forest clearance.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:17

Now behind in today's game, Chelsea have failed to win any of their last 17 Premier League matches when conceding the opening goal, dating back to October 2022.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:12

Assist Taiwo Micheal Awoniyi

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:12

Finding space midway through Chelsea's half, Yates skies an ambitious shot well over the crossbar from long range.

Goal Anthony David Junior Elanga

16:09

Nottingham Forest kick off, and we are back under way at Stamford Bridge!

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

16:03

For all their endeavour thus far, Nottingham Forest still have plenty left to do if they are to take maximum points today. Precedent suggests that will be tough: the Reds have won just one of their last 14 away games against Chelsea in all competitions and are winless since a 2-0 victory in January 1995. Furthermore, they have come out on top only once in their last 21 Premier League away games, losing 15.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:59

Despite dominating both ball and territory for most of the first half, Chelsea walk down the tunnel level with a dogged Nottingham Forest side, who have posed some threat through set-piece situations and with the occasional counter-attack. Too often, the home side have taken the wrong option in and around the opposition area, and they have managed just one shot on target. While Forest will be pleased with their performance so far, their hosts must do better in the final third.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:55

HALF-TIME: CHELSEA 0-0 NOTTINGHAM FOREST

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:53

From a 20-yard free-kick, Fernandez clips the top of Nottingham Forest's defensive wall and the ball loops behind. However, there's no time left to take the resulting corner.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:52

Again, Sterling dithers in the area after opening up space with a rapid run, and when he finally lays the ball back for Jackson to hit, the latter can only crash his shot straight into a Forest defender.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:50

At the start of at least three minutes added on for stoppages at the end of this lively first half, Danilo pulls up with an apparent hamstring strain. It looks as if the Brazilian midfielder will have to be replaced.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:49

Substitution Danilo dos Santos de Oliveira Anthony David Junior Elanga

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:47

Sterling drives in from the right touchline once again, but rather than picking out a team-mate on the other side of the area, he opts to drive a low shot through a thicket of red-shirted defenders. Worrall's block sends the ball behind for a corner.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:45

Yellow Card Conor John Gallagher

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:43

Colwill's delivery from the left touchline is heavily overhit and sails past the waiting Sterling, who arrives hopefully at the back post. That's a Nottingham Forest throw-in.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:43

Yellow Card Temitayo Olufisayo Olaoluwa Aina

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:42

At top speed, Gallagher drives forward from the halfway line before teeing up Jackson on the right side of Forest's area, but Worrall makes an excellent diving block to stop the striker's shot finding the target.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:39

JUST OVER! After Gallagher's delivery is nodded down into his path, Fernandez takes aim from just outside the area and thumps his shot over the crossbar!

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:38

Yellow Card Nicolas Jackson

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:38

At full stretch, Turner opts to push away an overhit Sterling cross from the right, which just about clears any immediate danger.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:35

CLOSE! Awoniyi wins another battle with Silva inside the box, and having levered his opponent out of the way, the Forest striker swivels and sends a shot narrowly wide of the right-hand post from close range! It's great centre-forward play, but there's no tangible reward.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:32

Although Chelsea have had 64 per cent of possession so far, they have not really tested Turner. The home side are certainly dominating both ball and territory, but Forest seem dangerous from set-pieces and on the counter.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:32

Yellow Card Benjamin James Chilwell

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:30

MISS! Using his presence and nous in equal measure, Awoniyi does well to win a free-kick deep into Chelsea territory, and Gibbs-White then sends the set-piece into the box. Eventually, following a little penalty-area pinball, the ball drops to Awoniyi 10 yards out, but he slashes it over the crossbar!

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:28

Chelsea are unbeaten in their last nine meetings with Nottingham Forest in all competitions since a 2-0 loss in January 1997, but following a run of seven straight losses, Forest drew both Premier League fixtures last season.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:26

Once again, Sterling slices through the Forest defence, and having taken time to pick out a low pass to meet Chilwell's lung-bursting run into the box, he watches on as his team-mate then fails to make clean contact.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:24

Both stretching for the ball in an aerial challenge, Yates and Fernandez clash heads. Thankfully, they are able to quickly dust themselves off and return to the fray.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:22

From a centrally placed free-kick, about 35 yards away from goal, Gibbs-White's dipping delivery is just too heavy for Worrall to reach near the right byline and sails out of play.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:20

JUST OVER! Some neat interplay - again involving Sterling, on the right - sets up space for Gallagher to pick up the ball around 20 yards from goal and let fly with a powerful strike. However, it fizzes narrowly over the left-hand post. Turner was well beaten there!

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:17

Cutting in from the right, Sterling slips a ball through the smallest of gaps to pick out Jackson just inside the box, but the Senegalese striker fails to take it in his stride and is unable to get a shot off.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:16

It seems the problem is now resolved, and the game resumes, with Chelsea taking control of possession inside their own half.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:14

The action is temporarily paused as the officials deal with a technical issue hampering their communication equipment. Several players take the chance to have a drink in the blazing sunshine, while both coaches dispense instructions to anyone close enough to listen.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:12

After a free-kick from the left is nodded down towards Chelsea's penalty area, Caicedo covers across well to stop in-form Awoniyi latching on to the loose ball. With Johnson moving to Spurs, Forest's centre-forward will be all the more important to their hopes of success today.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:09

The visitors are twice lucky to escape when caught dawdling just outside their own area, following a surging run by Sterling deep into Forest's defensive third.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:07

Forest's first chance to deliver the ball into the box ultimately comes to nothing: Aina hurls in a long throw from the right, but Sanchez is able to rise above the masses near the penalty spot and plucks the ball from the air.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:04

A brilliant last-ditch challenge inside the six-yard box by Aina denies Sterling the chance to sweep the ball home from close range, following a dangerous low cross from the left by Fernandez.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:03

Chelsea kick off, and we are under way in London!

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

15:01

The players are out on the pitch at a sun-soaked Stamford Bridge, with kick-off now just moments away!

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

14:58

Following his midweek suspension, Worrall returns from a one-match ban to captain Nottingham Forest today. Mangala's inclusion is the only change from last week's loss in Manchester. After a frantic conclusion to the transfer window, which saw Brennan Johnson depart for Tottenham, Tavares and Montiel are among the visitors' substitutes; however, Murillo and Nicolas Dominguez are not yet available.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

14:53

As expected, Chelsea revert to a more familiar starting XI following some experimentation in Wednesday's EFL Cup win, with players such as Sterling, Jackson and Silva all recalled as the side that beat Luton last week is retained. Romeo Lavia, Armando Broja, Reece James and Christopher Nkunku all feature on a lengthy injury list for today's hosts, but recent signing Palmer is selected on the bench.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

14:45

SUBS: Ethan Horvath, Nuno Tavares, Cheikhou Kouyate, Anthony Elanga, Chris Wood, Brandon Aguilera, Felipe, Moussa Niakhate, Gonzalo Montiel.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

14:37

Last week, Nottingham Forest let a two-goal lead slip against Manchester United, ultimately leaving Old Trafford empty-handed: having built such an unlikely lead after just four minutes, captain Joe Worrall was sent off as Forest eventually succumbed to a 3-2 defeat. Steve Cooper's side have since been eliminated from the EFL Cup by Burnley, so have now suffered three losses from their first four games of the season. While they held Chelsea to a pair of draws in the 2022-23 campaign - including a 2-2 result at Stamford Bridge - Forest have posted no wins from their last 12 Premier League away fixtures.

Chelsea vs Nottingham Forest

14:37

Ahead of today's contest, Chelsea are aiming to complete a three-match winning streak for the first time since March, following back-to-back victories in the space of a week. Mauricio Pochettino's men fought back for a 2-1 EFL Cup second-round win over AFC Wimbledon last time out, days after registering their first success of the season by beating Luton Town - that ended the Blues' eight-game run without a home victory in the Premier League.
