Match preview: Nottingham Forest vs Leicester
Nottingham Forest and Leicester will clash at The City Ground in the 36th round of the Premier League. The previous encounter between these teams in this competition, on 25-04-2024, saw Nottingham Forest triumph with a score of 1-3. Recent direct confrontations favour the home side, having won 3 out of their last 4 meetings. The home advantage may play a crucial role in this match, given that Leicester has shown considerable disparity in their home and away performances.
Team analysis: Nottingham Forest
The home side is currently positioned 6th in the league, having accrued 61 points from 18 wins, 7 draws, and 10 losses. In their penultimate match, they suffered a defeat at home to Brentford (0-2), but they managed to secure a draw against Crystal Palace (1-1) in their latest outing. Nottingham Forest has performed consistently when playing at home, achieving 20 points from the last 30 available with 6 wins, 2 draws, and 2 losses in their past 10 home fixtures. Common scorelines at half-time in their home matches include 0-0 (seen in 7 of 17 games) and 1-0 (6 of 17 games). The team has conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches, indicating a lack of defensive stability, yet their attack has been effective, scoring in 7 of their last 10 games. Notably, 12 of their last 17 home games have concluded with fewer than 2.5 goals. In their 35 matches this season, they have only made a comeback in 1 of the 10 games in which they conceded first.
Nottingham Forest comes into this match following a 1-1 draw against Crystal Palace, with the only goal scored by Murillo. The team is expected to maintain their usual 4-3-3 tactical formation, focusing on quick transitions and attacks down the flanks. Anthony Elanga and Chris Wood are expected to lead the line, supported creatively by Nicolás Domínguez and the versatile Morgan Gibbs-White, who orchestrates offensive moves from midfield. Ryan Yates is suspended for this match, along with Callum Hudson-Odoi, who is dealing with physical issues.
Team analysis: Leicester
The visiting side finds themselves in 19th place, with a total of 21 points from 5 wins, 6 draws, and 24 losses. They suffered a heavy defeat to Wolverhampton Wanderers (3-0) in their penultimate match but secured a home victory against Southampton (2-0) in their last match. Leicester has been heavily influenced by the home advantage, performing significantly better when playing in front of their supporters. Their away statistics over the last 30 matches show just 1 win, 2 draws, and 12 losses, with only 11 goals scored and a staggering 39 conceded. At home, they have recorded 3 wins, 1 draw, and 11 losses, netting 15 goals and conceding 32. In the Premier League, they have managed to collect only 4 points from 30 available, including 1 win, 1 draw, and 8 losses in the last 10 away matches. Their defence has been porous, allowing goals in 9 of the last 10 games, while they have struggled to find the net, failing to score in 8 of the last 10 matches. There’s a tendency for high-scoring matches in their away games, with 13 of 17 finishing with over 2.5 goals. The team rarely opens the scoring: they have managed to take the lead in just 6 of their last 35 league games, of which they have led at half-time in 4 and won 3 by full time. In 35 fixtures this season, they conceded the opening goal 29 times, only turning around the scoreline in 2 occasions.
Leicester City enters this match after their 2-0 victory against Southampton, with goals from Jamie Vardy and Jordan Ayew. Ruud Van Nistelrooy’s team is likely to stick with a 4-3-3 formation, aiming for fast-paced and dynamic football, looking to exploit spaces in the opposition’s defence. Up front, Bilal El Khannouss, Kasey McAteer, and the experienced Jamie Vardy form a potent attacking trio capable of causing problems at any moment. In midfield, Wilfred Ndidi will play a pivotal role, dictating the rhythm of play and facilitating the attacking transitions of the ‘Foxes’. Missing from this match will be Ricardo Pereira, Stephy Mavididi, Bobby De Cordova-Reid, Mads Hermansen, Issahaku Fatawu, and Harry Souttar, all sidelined due to physical issues.
