Head-to-head statistics Tottenham - Nottingham Forest
Tottenham Hotspur Team Overview
⚪ Tottenham find themselves in 15th place as they enter the 33rd round. While relegation is not a concern, climbing more than two spots seems unlikely. It's been a disappointing season for the Spurs in every sense. They have managed just one win in their last six matches, defeating only Southampton (3-1), who were the first to be relegated to the Championship. In the previous round, they couldn't put up much resistance against Wolverhampton, despite a relatively even game (2-4). One of the goals came from Richarlison, who made his first Premier League appearance after recovering from injury.
🧷 Ange Postecoglou's side is saved from relegation worries by their Europa League campaign. Tottenham haven't been particularly impressive in this tournament either, but they have reached the semifinals, where they will face Bodø/Glimt. This week, they edged past Eintracht. After a draw in London, the Spurs secured a narrow advantage in Frankfurt thanks to a penalty converted by Dominic Solanke (1-0).
📣 Ange Postecoglou considers the victory over Eintracht crucial for Tottenham's entire season: "I'm very proud of the players; they worked hard. We defended well when we needed to. We had our moments going forward, and I think over the two legs, we deserved to make it to the semifinals. The guys believe in what we're doing, and I'm proud of them. It was undoubtedly an important match for us-for our season and for everything we're trying to achieve."
❌ Tottenham's injury list is gradually clearing up. Radu Drăgușin remains sidelined since January. A significant loss is Heung-Min Son, who was injured in the first leg against Eintracht. James Maddison was forced off in the return leg, putting his participation in the upcoming match in doubt.

Nottingham Forest Team Overview
🔴 Nottingham Forest have experienced some dips this season. For instance, in February, they went three matches without a win. However, despite their inconsistent performances, the team remained among the leaders due to the erratic form of their rivals. Now, with opponents gaining momentum, Forest cannot afford to drop points.
🧷 At the most inopportune time, they suffered a defeat to Aston Villa (1-2). In the previous round, Forest were left empty-handed after conceding a stoppage-time goal to Everton (0-1). As a result, they slipped one spot in the standings, allowing other chasers to close the gap.
📣 Nottingham Forest's head coach Nuno Espírito Santo believes Everton played better last week: "Credit to Everton, they played well, created problems for us, and controlled the game in the second half... The positive for us is that everything is in our hands; we need to bounce back and perform better. It's about regrouping now and understanding that nothing will be given to us; we have to earn everything ourselves."
❌ In the upcoming match, Ola Aina will be unavailable due to an injury that has sidelined him for two games. However, his compatriot Taiwo Awoniyi is close to recovery and is expected to be included in the squad for the next match.

Editorial Prediction
Nottingham seem to have run out of steam as the championship draws to a close, and each match is proving to be a challenge for them. The pressure of reaching the historic goal of qualifying for the Champions League is clearly taking its toll. Therefore, we don't expect the visitors to score many goals. Considering the statistical trends from Forest's recent games and their head-to-head encounters with Tottenham, we're betting on Nottingham's individual total under 1.5 goals. This outcome has occurred in 6 of the last 7 matches between these clubs.
