13:22 CET - It is half-time at the Forest Ground, and the hosts will be disappointed not to be ahead. Chelsea's central defenders were half asleep in the first 30 minutes, handing Forest some great chances. However, the home side failed to take advantage of being on top, and the game remains scoreless.
Encouraging signs for Ange Postecoglou at least.
