Latest Nottingham vs Leicester City football review
After two seasons of struggling with relegation, two-time European champions Nottingham Forest have emerged strong in 2024-25. The East Midlands club now have a chance to play in the Champions League group stage.
Having climbed to second place in the Premier League table at the start of the season, Forest have been struggling recently with a string of points drops, most recently a draw at Selhurst Park against Crystal Palace on Monday.
After a goalless first half, Eberechi Eze coolly scored from the penalty spot to open the scoring for Palace. However, centre-back Murillo equalised for Forest with his second goal of the season, helping the visitors to salvage a point.
With only 1 win in the last 5 matches in the Premier League, coach Nuno Espirito Santo's team has dropped to 6th place in the rankings, 2 points behind Newcastle and Chelsea in the race for the top 5.
Despite losing back-to-back home games against Everton (0-1) and Brentford (0-2), Forest still have one of the best home defensive records in the league, conceding just 13 goals in 17 games at the City Ground – the same as Liverpool.
On Leicester's side, after a series of 11 winless matches since the end of January, Foxes fans finally enjoyed joy last weekend when the team had a positive victory over Southampton at King Power Stadium.
At 38, legend Jamie Vardy opened the scoring with his eighth goal of the season. Veteran Jordan Ayew then doubled the lead, and Leicester kept a clean sheet for the first time since October.
That was only Leicester's fifth win in 35 games, helping them rise to 21 points but still rank 19th, 16 points behind 17th-placed West Ham while there are only 3 rounds left in the season.
Away from home, Leicester are on a six-game winless run in the Premier League, picking up just one point in that run. Their last away win was on 26 January, when Vardy and El Khannous scored to beat Tottenham.
Ruud van Nistelrooy has only won four of his 24 games since taking over from Steve Cooper in December and Leicester are said to have started looking for a replacement for next season's Championship campaign.
