Nottingham Forest preview: Improved Forest
Sean Dyche’s Nottingham Forest come into this one on the back of a 2-1 win away at FC Utrecht in the league phase of the UEFA Europa League in midweek, courtesy of goals from attacking duo Arnaud Kalimuendo and Igor Jesus.
The hosts have now suffered just three defeats in 11 matches across all competitions, following the appointment of Dyche, but the hosts did suffer a 3-0 shellacking at the hands of Everton at the Hill Dickinson Stadium last weekend.
Tottenham preview: Slight improvement
Thomas Frank has been under immense pressure at Tottenham Hotspur but it has to be said that they have gradually improved post-Postecoglou, just a few points outside of the top four after they finished 17th in the Premier League last season.
Having rescued a point against Newcastle United before comfortably defeating Brentford by two goals to nil last week, Spurs most recently eased to a 3-0 hammering of Slavia Prague in the UEFA Champions League the other day.

Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham prediction
Nottingham Forest begin the weekend sitting just outside of the bottom three and the relegation places. They have returned to their more rigid, counter-attacking style of football that was so successful under Nuno Espirito Santo. Tottenham head to the City Ground with a similar intention of perhaps focusing purely on set-pieces and avoiding external damage, such as fatigue and injury, for this one and a low-scoring encounter appears to be expected.
Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham tip: Under 2.5 goals
