Nottingham U23 form and stats
Things could have gone better for Nottingham U23 in their Premier League 2 Divison Two away matches, but 3 points from 3 games is all right.

Before that one, a nice away victory 2-0 at Reading U23.Nottingham are scoring more than one goal per away game on average, having accumulated 4 away goals from 3 games (in the league). The Nottingham U23 manager A. Reid has some worries about the defense as 6 goals have been conceded in these travels.
