Nottingham Forest have 21 points running out as the home team. Leeds United have 18 points using the away locker rooms. Are we looking at a home win?

Insights:
  • Nottingham Forest have conceded at least twice as many goals as they have scored.
  • Leeds United have played more matches over 2,5 goals away than home.

These are hectic days for the hometeam, as they played only four days ago in the Carabao Cup. That game was an away game at Manchester United, so at least Nottingham Forest are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

Nottingham Forest form and stats

When playing at home in the Premier League, Nottingham Forest have managed 4 wins, 3 draws and suffered 3 defeats from 10 games.

The fans are hoping that Nottingham will strike back in this match, putting things right after the 0-2 away loss in the Carabao Cup fixture against Manchester United. Johnson (midfield) was the top team player in that game with a rating of 7.05/10. Johnson dribled past the opponent 3 of 4 times.

Preceding that match, a home loss in the Carabao Cup against Manchester United.

Low-scoring affair? Looking at this club's last 12 league matches, 9 have produced two goals or less.

The Nottingham Forest fans would probably like to see some more goals scored at their own stadium in the league, the tally being 13 in 10 matches. On the other hand, Nottingham Forest have conceded 12 goals. There's been improvement defensively lately, as only 1 of these goals has been conceded in their last three home matches.

Leeds United form and stats

Leeds United have only collected 5 points from their away games in the Premier League, after 1-2-6 (9 played).

Two away matches in a row for Leeds, whose coach Marsch could celebrate last time after the FA Cup win against Accrington Stanley. The attacker Bamford got a match rating of 8.43 in that game. Bamford signed up for two assists, hit four key passes, dribled past the opponent 1 of 1 times and had 18 successful passes (of 21 total).

A draw for Leeds United before that, at their own venue hosting Brentford (0-0).

Leeds United have another match that requires travelling in just three nights, a Premier League game vs Manchester United. A rough itinerary for the visiting team!

Scoring goals is the main ingredient in creating success in football, and not only at home. So far Leeds have scored 11 goals in 9 league games away. Leeds United have conceded 19 goals in these games.

Head 2 Head

Nottingham Forest have pulled off a sequence of 5 consecutive games without losing (2-3-0) when playing Leeds United.
