"Ange Postecoglou's future at Nottingham Forest looks increasingly bleak after his profligate side slumped to a 2-0 defeat to Chelsea. Postecoglou watched his side waste a host of chances as his wait for a first win as Forest manager goes on, an international break in which there was significant speculation about his potential sacking, doing nothing to improve the hosts' fortunes. His counterpart Enzo Maresca watched from the stands as he served a one-match touchline ban, but a trio of half-time changes turned a game in which they initially struggled to gain a foothold in their favour."
"Santos was withdrawn as Maresca shuffled his pack, with Romeo Lavia and Alejandro Garnacho also withdrawn as Caicedo, Marc Guiu and Jamie Gittens entering the fray. And that decision by Maresca paid emphatic dividends as the Blues soon gave Forest a mountain to climb. Acheampong rose to head Chelsea in front after Neto got down the left"
Chelsea defeated Nottingham Forest 2-0 as Forest squandered several clear opportunities and remain one point above the relegation zone. Ange Postecoglou continued to wait for his first win as Forest manager amid persistent speculation over his job following the international break. Enzo Maresca served a one-match touchline ban but made three half-time substitutions that shifted momentum in Chelsea's favour. Josh Acheampong scored his first goal for Chelsea and Pedro Neto converted a free-kick, while Reece James added a late goal on his 200th appearance. Chelsea moved within two points of the Premier League leaders.
