Chelsea can take the next step of their glacier-pace revival under Mauricio Pochettino by ending their torrid run of results against Brentford on Saturday at the Gtech Community Stadium.
The Bees have won each of their last three visits to Stamford Bridge and held the Blues to a goalless draw in their own backyard last season, to account for a four-game unbeaten run in this fixture.
After edging into the FA Cup quarter-finals to make it one defeat in five in all competitions (albeit with the lone defeat coming in the Carabao Cup final), Chelsea must continue to generate momentum to threaten the European qualification places.
There is a sense that the sheer number of absentees will eventually catch up with Liverpool but they keep rolling, with the help of several impressive youth players who have risen to a considerable challenge in recent games.
Next up are Forest, who have one league win in six games and dangle precariously above the dropzone – while waiting to hear if they face a points deduction for financial rule breaches.
