Nottingham Forest, Recent FormOn the back of a tough 4-0 away defeat by West Ham United, Nottingham Forest manager Steve Cooper will have some work to do to get his team in a confident mindset. They achieved 51% possession in that match and had 8 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against West Ham United's tally of 18 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
While they have shown an appetite for goals over the last 6 matches, clocking up 5, they have not had it all their own way at the back and have given away 8 goals and some valuable points in the process. A number of teams visiting The City Ground have struggled to break through on goal this season so far with the home side having kept 5 clean sheets. It's been rare for their fans not to have had something to shout about this season, with their team scoring in 11 out of 12 home games.
They have been performing well at The City Ground recently and are unbeaten in their last 8 home games.
On an individual basis, Brennan Johnson will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Nottingham Forest's last 6 league games.
Everton, Recent FormThe Everton squad will be looking to reset their fortunes after their heavy 4-0 away defeat at the hands of Arsenal. Their share of possession in that meeting was 27%, while racking up 8 shots along the way, 5 of which were on target. Arsenal had 15 shots on goal with 5 on target.
Having conceded 10 goals and scored just 2 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 6 points. Unable to score in 5 of their last 6 away games, they will need to improve in front of goal if they are to pick up more points. They have shown some defensive frailties on the road of late, having given away at least 1 goal in 11 of their past 12 away league matches, making points very hard to come by.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 8 games.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 1-1 draw.
The Toffees have managed to keep a clean sheet against Forest in each of their previous 2 visits to The City Ground. As away records go, The Toffees have built up a decent scoring streak against Forest in the league, having scored at least 1 goal in each of their last 7 away meetings. In their past 5 meetings, Everton's defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so The Reds will have to take their chances when they come.
Forest has a poor track record in the league when they host Everton, losing in their last 2 home games.
Forest manager Steve Cooper has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Serge Aurier (Knock), Taiwo Awoniyi (Groin), Giulian Biancone (Cruciate ligament), Willy Boly (Hamstring), Dean Henderson (Muscle), Cheikhou Kouyaté (Hamstring), Scott McKenna (Hamstring), Moussa Niakhaté (Hamstring), Omar Richards (Leg) and Ryan Yates (Fever) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Sean Dyche has a number of injury concerns in his Everton squad to contend with: Dominic Calvert-Lewin (Thigh), James Garner (Lack of fitness), Nathan Patterson (Knock) and Andros Townsend (Cruciate ligament)
