Nottingham Forest v Tottenham

⭐ Nottingham Forest v Tottenham Best Bet

Tottenham’s season has been nothing short of intriguing. Despite scoring the second-most goals in the league and boasting one of the best defensive records—before the Liverpool game only two teams had conceded fewer—they find themselves languishing in 11th place. Their inconsistency has been a defining feature, as they often rise to the occasion against stronger opposition but falter in matches where they are favourites. This unpredictability has led to 8 league losses, leaving question marks over their ability to string together consistent results.

In contrast, Nottingham Forest have been one of the league’s standout performers this season, currently sitting in 4th place. While they haven’t been prolific in front of goal, their ability to grind out results has been impressive.

Forest have lost just 4 matches while securing 9 wins, including some eye-catching results against top sides. They’ve beaten Liverpool and Manchester United on the road and managed a solid draw away at Stamford Bridge.

Forest’s recent form is equally commendable, with 3 consecutive victories under their belt. Despite this strong run and their impressive start to the campaign, they find themselves as only slight favourites for this fixture—a status that seems to undervalue their potential. Betting on Forest to win offers excellent value, given their current momentum and Tottenham’s erratic form.

👕 Nottingham Forest v Tottenham Predicted XI

🔍 Nottingham Forest v Tottenham Players to Watch

⚪️ Dominic Solanke

Dominic Solanke to have 1 or more shots on target is a promising pick. As one of Tottenham’s standout attacking threats this season, no Spurs player has taken more shots per game in the Premier League. Solanke averages 1.29 shots on target per match and has already found the net 5 times.

While Nottingham Forest boasts a solid defense, conceding just 4.18 shots on target per game, Solanke seems the most likely source of danger for Spurs. If opportunities arise, expect him to be at the center of them.

🔴 Morgan Gibbs-White

Morgan Gibbs-White has been a standout performer for Nottingham Forest this season, particularly in attacking play. Among the squad, only Chris Wood surpasses him in average shots and shots on target per game.

Gibbs-White has contributed to 4 goals in the Premier League so far and averages 0.85 shots on target per match, consistently challenging opposing goalkeepers. Facing a Spurs side dealing with defensive issues caused by injuries, it wouldn’t be surprising to see him test the keeper once again in this encounter.

💻 Nottingham Forest v Tottenham Form and Tactics

Nottingham Forest have been excellent this season, currently sitting 4th in the league—a stark contrast to this time last year when they were languishing in 19th place. Their defence has been particularly impressive, conceding the third-fewest goals in the league and achieving the joint-second highest number of clean sheets. Nottingham Forest excel in defensive transitions and their in-possession play is equally noteworthy. They consistently position multiple players high up the pitch and close to the ball, creating ideal conditions for effective counter-pressing.

Tottenham's season has been marked by significant inconsistencies. While they have delivered impressive performances against big teams like Manchester City and Aston Villa, they have also suffered surprising defeats in must-win games, such as their loss to Ipswich. Recently, however, Spurs have shown signs of strength, securing a commanding 5-0 victory over Southampton and defeating Manchester United in the cup. The team has had to contend with numerous defensive injuries, which have forced Fraser Forster into a starting goalkeeper role and 18-year-old Archie Gray to play out of position at center-back.
