Chelsea moved level on points with sixth-placed Newcastle United after coming from behind to beat Nottingham Forest 3-2.
Goals from Mykhailo Mudryk and Willy Boly saw the teams go into half-time level at the City Ground.
And it looked as though former Chelsea winger Callum Hudson-Odoi could have secured the winner when he curled a shot in to make it 2-1.
But Mauricio Pochettino’s substitutes paid off to great effect as Raheem Sterling and Nicolas Jackson scored in the space of two minutes to end our winless run away from home.
Mauricio Pochettino selected the same starting line-up as last week’s emphatic 5-0 victory over West Ham United, although Reece James and Lesley Ugochukwu did return to the Chelsea squad for the first time since our EFL Cup win over Blackburn Rovers on January 11, as Alfie Gilchrist and Deivid Washington dropped out.
With this fixture kicking off at 5.30pm BST, Forest went into the contest knowing they only needed a point from their final two matches to guarantee their Premier League safety following defeats for Burnley and Luton Town.
Prior to kick-off, the Tricky Trees were three points ahead of 18th-place Luton with a 13-goal superior goal difference.
The hosts had a great chance inside the opening two minutes as Chris Wood was put through, but Djordje Petrovic came out and saved the striker’s lobbed effort from the corner of the penalty area.
