Nottingham Forest, Recent FormThe Nottingham Forest players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their away fixture against Brentford recently, that ended in a 2-1 defeat. They achieved 31% possession in that match and had 5 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Brentford's tally of 14 efforts at goal, 8 of which were on target.
They have found the net 7 times in their last 6 matches, but it hasn't earned them much points-wise due to a leaky defence that's shipped 12 goals in that same period. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 home games, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last 13 games overall.
Their recent results are not something they'll be looking to repeat, having lost 5 of their last 6 games.
Southampton, Recent FormSouthampton will not be too disheartened with their 3-1 away defeat at the hands of Newcastle United who sit so many places above them in the table. They came away from that fixture with a 36% share of the possession and clocked up 4 attempts on goal with 3 on target, in comparison to Newcastle United, who managed 22 attempts on goal, 5 of which were on target.
With 5 goals scored in their last 6, they might have expected more points from that run of matches, but having conceded 14 goals along the way, things haven't been going their way points-wise. This season they have failed to score in 8 of their 17 away games and conceded at least one goal in 30 of their 34 games overall.
A win for Southampton is just a distant memory, having not won a single match in 9 games.
In the last league encounter between these sides, it was Southampton who ended up empty-handed, losing 0-1 to Nottingham Forest.
From their past 4 away matches in the league against Forest, The Saints have managed to find the net with at least 1 goal and will be aiming to keep that streak going.
Forest manager Steve Cooper has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Giulian Biancone (Cruciate ligament), Willy Boly (Hamstring), Jack Colback (Concussion), Danilo dos Santos (Knock), Dean Henderson (Thigh), Brennan Johnson (Knock), Scott McKenna (Shoulder), Omar Richards (Leg), Gustavo Scarpa (Knock), Jonjo Shelvey (Calf), Neco Williams (Concussion) and Chris Wood (Leg) are all currently out of contention for this game.
The injury list is starting to mount up for Southampton manager Rubén Sellés with Tino Livramento (Cruciate ligament), Paul Onuachu (Muscle), Romain Perraud (Ankle) and Mohamed Salisu (Knock) all unavailable for selection, and Juan Larios (Muscle) out for the rest of the season.
