Former Chelsea midfielder, Glenn Hoddle has warned the Blues about Nottingham Forest amid the race for the top five in the Premier League table.
The 67-year-old warned Chelsea not to count Nottingham Forest out yet for the battle to finish top five in the English top-flight league table this season.
Chelsea moved to 4th position on the Premier League table following their 1-0 victory against Manchester United on Friday.
Marc Cucurella’s second half header gave Enzo Maresca’s side the win against United at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea have a game remaining to complete the season and are likely to need a win against Nottingham Forest on the final day of the Premier League campaign to secure UEFA Champions League qualification for next season.
Nottingham Forest, on the other hand, still have a slim opportunity to qualify for the Champions League too.
Speaking to Premier League productions, Hoodle said: “I would not count [Nottingham] Forest out yet, you never what you are going to get with West Ham.
“Forest could go to West Ham and get a result and if they get a result they’re then at home and that place they’ll get rocking against Chelsea.
“They’ve not been great away from home, they’ve done great at home Chelsea but away they have got a bit of a soft belly at the moment.
“I would not cast them 100% out at the minute, it’s going to go to the wire, it really is.”;;
Currently, Liverpool, Arsenal, Newcastle, Chelsea and Aston Villa are in the Premier League top five.
