Chelsea will be looking to build on last weekend's 3-1 defeat of Bournemouth when they welcome Nottingham Forest to west London.

Steve Cooper's side are out of the bottom three as they seek to survive in the Premier League, but Forest have the worst away record in the division.

Chelsea have nothing but pride still to play for after a dismal campaign, although some players will need to convince the incoming manager of their worth.

Kick-off is at 3pm BST. Make sure you know how to watch the Premier League wherever you are.

VPN guide

Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country

If you’re out of the country for a Premier League fixture, then you won't be able to watch on your domestic streaming service as usual. The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.

A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that's a result.

There are plenty of good-value options out there. For the Premier League, FourFourTwo currently recommends:

ExpressVPN
