Nottingham Forest, who returned to the Premier League after 23 years, finished just four points away from the danger zone last year. Their poor road record has not improved, and they are currently five points above the danger zone. Their current form is a significant concern, as they are still in the relegation zone.

Tottenham started the season well under new coach Ange Postecoglou and without Harry Kane. However, a poor run in November and December led to a significant drop in the standings. A win over Newcastle helped them recover, and with an easier schedule in the upcoming month, they could easily catch up with league leaders. Currently, they are three points away from the Champions League spot and seven points away from Liverpool.

Nottingham City have lost two central defenders, Joe Worrall and Scott McKenna, to injury and are expected to leave the club during the next transfer period. Taiwo Awoniyi, the team’s top goalscorer, will miss his fifth consecutive game due to an injury. Coach Steve Cooper is the leading candidate for sacking in the Premier League, with odds between 1.7 and 2.0.

Tottenham is facing significant injuries, potentially missing up to nine players, including Eric Dier, Rodrigo Bentancur, Manor Solomon, Ashley Phillips, James Maddison, Micky van de Ven, Ivan Perisic, Alfie Whiteman, and Ryan Sessegnon. Richarlison, who returned after a month’s break due to injury, has played his best game since joining the club. The starting lineup is expected to be similar to the previous game, which saw a 4:1 victory against Newcastle United.

Nottingham Forest

Goalkeeper: Matt Turner
