📈 Crystal Palace v Nottingham Forest Form & Tactics
I’m a little worried about Palace’s attacking options now that Eze has gone to Arsenal. Oliver Glasner’s side don’t have an obvious replacement, and as good as Sarr and Mateta are - they don’t have the creative ability of a player like Eze, which could make chances a bit more difficult to come by for the Eagles in the coming weeks.
This is a Palace side that already relied on set pieces for quite a few of their goals, 31% of Palace’s Premier League goals last season came from set pieces, which was the highest share of any side in the division. They also led the league when it came to goals scored from corners (11).
Palace did win the first leg of their Conference League qualifying tie against Fredrikstad during the week, but this is likely to have an adverse effect on Glasner’s side as they aren’t used to the demands of European football, and don’t have that deep of a squad to be able to call upon reliable reinforcements.
Forest surprised me on the opening day of the season, they had a torrid pre-season in which they didn’t manage to score more than one goal in any of their games, but then fired three past Brentford.
It looks like Forest are sticking with their counter attacking approach which was particularly effective on the road last season. Only Liverpool and Arsenal picked up more points than Forest on their travels last term, Nuno’s side are perfectly set up to play in this way and have real threats that can hurt Palace.
Dan Ndoye scored on his Nottingham Forest debut to add to Chris Wood’s brace and with the creative force of Gibbs-White teeing up the likes of Hudson-Odoi, Ndoye and Wood - Forest will always carry an attacking threat.
