Nottingham Forest FC

Stadium

The City Ground, home to Nottingham Forest FC since 1898, is a historic venue on the banks of the River Trent. With a capacity of over 30,000, it has witnessed iconic moments, including European Cup triumphs. Its vibrant atmosphere makes it a formidable ground for visiting teams and a cherished home for the Reds' faithful, embodying the club's rich heritage.

Manager

Nottingham Forest FC's head coach has spent the season managing a real-world relegation conversation: 16th on 42 points, with a 11-9-15 record, means every away trip is graded by whether Nottingham took at least a point. The job becomes squad management under pressure -- defending leads, picking the right spots to rotate, and keeping the dressing room together as the final whistles get louder.

Recent Form

Nottingham Forest enters this period in exceptional form, securing four wins and a draw from their last five outings. Impressively, they netted 16 goals while conceding just three. Dominant victories against Chelsea (3-1), Sunderland (5-0), Burnley (4-1), and Tottenham (3-0) highlight their attacking prowess and defensive solidity, with a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Aston Villa completing a strong run.

Top Scorers

Nottingham Forest FC have scored 44 goals in 35 games this season -- 1.26 per match -- a respectable but uneven output that has rested heavily on the squad's top one or two finishers. With 46 conceded the goal difference of -2 explains the table position more than highlight-reel attacks: the scoring is there in patches, but stretches without goals have shaped the season.

Match Preview

Nottingham Forest prepares for a crucial home fixture against Newcastle on May 10th, marking Matchday 36 of the 2025/2026 season. Currently sitting 16th with 42 points, Forest will be eager to build on their remarkable recent form, which has seen them collect 13 points from their last five matches, including four impressive wins. Their strong offensive displays and defensive resilience will be key against a challenging Newcastle side. The City Ground faithful will undoubtedly provide a passionate atmosphere as the Reds look to secure vital points and further cement their Premier League standing in the closing stages of the campaign, aiming for a strong finish.
