Sports Mole provides everything you need to know about how to watch Nottingham Forest's Premier League clash with Chelsea on Sunday.

Easily the biggest game left of the 2024-25 Premier League season, top-five rivals Nottingham Forest and Chelsea collide in Sunday's blockbuster gameweek 38 battle.

A coveted place in the Champions League could be at stake for the winner - if there is one - and here, Sports Mole provides details of how to tune into the event.



What time does Nottingham Forest vs. Chelsea kick off?

Nottingham Forest vs. Chelsea kicks off at 4pm on Sunday, as is the case with every Premier League match taking place on the final day of the campaign.

Victory for the hosts would be particularly historic, as it would mark the first time that they have ever won as many as 20 matches in a 38-game top-flight season.



Where is Nottingham Forest vs. Chelsea being played?

Nottingham Forest have the honour of hosting Chelsea at their City Ground venue on the last day, which will be either elated or deflated at the full-time whistle based on the outcome of the game.

The Blues prevailed in this exact fixture 3-2 last season, but it has been over 100 years since Chelsea won back-to-back away league games against the Garibaldi, last doing so in 1922.

TV channels

Forest and Chelsea's mouthwatering match is one of three Premier League final-day games selected for live TV coverage and will be shown on the Sky Sports Main Event TV channel.

Sky customers can access Sky Sports Main Event on channel number 401, while Virgin Media customers with the Sky Sports add-on can select 511 (SD) or 501 (HD), and EE TV subscribers 419 (SD) or 439 (HD).

Online streaming

For those without Sky TV, the fixture will be streamed on the network's streaming service NOW, where viewers can purchase a monthly sports subscription or a one-day pass.

The streaming service can be accessed on an array of devices, including televisions, computers, mobile phones and games consoles.

Highlights

The Sky Sports YouTube channel will upload highlights of the match shortly after the full-time whistle has blown, and the broadcaster's official X account will also show snippets of the key moments throughout the game.

Additionally, the official Chelsea and Nottingham Forest YouTube accounts will be expected to share the best of the action in their own videos, potentially with behind-the-scenes footage and extended highlights from the winning team, while BBC's Match of the Day programme will also show highlights and analysis.



What is at stake for Nottingham Forest and Chelsea on the final day?

The stakes could hardly be higher when it comes to Champions League football, and as Chelsea are currently sat in fifth spot, the Blues know that victory will confirm their place in next season's premier competition in Europe.

Meanwhile, nothing but a win will do for seventh-placed Nottingham Forest due to Newcastle United's superior goal difference, but even victory will not suffice for the top five if the Magpies beat Everton and Aston Villa overcome Manchester United.


Who will win Nottingham Forest vs. Chelsea ?

The £1m question.

Forest could come into this game without the injured Murillo and his countless clearances in every game, but Chelsea are woeful up front on the road and have won just one of their last 10 Premier League scraps away from home.

The Blues will be boosted by Christopher Nkunku and Marc Guiu's returns, but a hotly-contested draw is the only outcome we can envisage.
