Nottingham Forest became the first club in Premier League history to have to replace two key players in ten minutes against Fulham on the last matchday as centre-backs Willy Boly and Scott McKenna were injured. They lost 0:2 after this early shock but still remain six points ahead of the relegation zone thanks to a previous five match unbeaten run. In addition, the Foresters have been unbeaten at the City Ground since Fulham beat them in mid-September. For 22 rounds “dexterous trees” recorded six victories and six peaceful outcomes, which corresponds to 24 points and 14th position in the standings. The line of attack looks very weak, which differed only 17 times. Richards, Niahate, McKenna, Kouyate, Henderson, Pain, Biancone and Avoni, who is not yet in shape, will not be able to take part in the fight today.
Manchester City’s 3:1 win over Arsenal in the middle of the week suggests they will make life difficult for the home defence. “Heavenly” regained the first place in the table, however, it is necessary to stay at the top, which will be extremely difficult to do. In August, the Mancunians defeated the Foresters with a score of 6:0, shipping the league newcomer with three goals in each half. Today the Citizens will try to build on their success, as the team strives to become the second club in the history of the Premier League, which managed to win three league titles in a row. Success in the last game put an end to a two-game losing streak, although Pep Guardiola once again did not describe the trip to London as “exhausting” as he did after the Hotspurs game. For 23 rounds MC chalked up 16 victories and three draws, with the best performance in the attack, which differed 59 times. Mendy and the Stones, who have a hip injury, will not enter the field today. More prediction for today games football can be obtained from the link provided.
