Nottingham Forest form and stats
Nottingham Forest have played three Championship home games so far, perhaps enough to set expectations for the season. In that case, only 0 points from these matches could be a signal of rough times ahead. With Nottingham having lost three times in a row here, the pressure is increasing on the manager C. Hughton.
The Nottingham crowd went home unhappy last time out, seeing their beloved players lose 1-2 to Cardiff City here at The City Ground in a Championship match. Lewis Grabban, who plays in attack, was the best performer for the side in that fixture, receiving a rating of 7.41 (out of 10). Grabban scored one goal and hit one key pass.
1-1 away at Derby County before that.There's a new game coming up fairly quickly for Nottingham Forest as they are travelling to their away game against Huddersfield Town in the Championship. That match is three days after this one.
The Nottingham fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 3 in 3 matches. Nottingham have conceded 6 goals in these home games, a significant number.
Middlesbrough form and stats
The Championship season is young and Middlesbrough have only just started going through their travel schedule, with 3 away games done and still no victory. 2 draws and 1 defeat so far.
Middlesbrough lost away at Coventry City (0-2) in their previous game and are perhaps starting to feel homesick. Midfielder Matt Crooks was the best performer of that match, with a rating of 7.43. Crooks hit the woodwork once and dribled passed the opponent 1 of 1 times.
Preceding that match was the 1-1 draw at home vs Blackburn Rovers.After this away game Middlesbrough return home for a Championship game against Blackpool. That game is only three sleeps after this.
Goals are few and far between in Middlesbrough's away league games. Only 1 goal from 3 travels. As opposed to that, Middlesbrough have seen the ball go into their own net 3 times on the road.
