Latest football match prediction: Nottingham Forest vs Leeds
Having entered their third manager of the 2025-2026 season, the home team seems to be preparing for an unexpected relegation battle, as they are currently 13 points behind the same point last season.
Owner Evangelos Marinakis hopes that the appointment of Sean Dyche will help the team rediscover defensive solidity – something that was once their strength under Nuno Espirito Santo. Indeed, Forest kept a clean sheet in their 0-0 draw with Sturm Graz in the Europa League on Thursday.
However, in the two Premier League matches Dyche managed, the team conceded two goals in each game — a 0-2 defeat to Bournemouth on October 26th and a 2-2 draw with Manchester United on November 1st.
Forest are currently on a three-match winless streak, including two draws, and have only scored a total of two goals in this run. However, their home form has shown signs of improvement: unbeaten in their last two matches at City Ground (one win, one draw), after losing four consecutive games prior to that.
Leeds United suffered a heavy 0-3 defeat against Brighton & Hove Albion on November 1st, with two of their three shots on target coming in the 85th minute.
"The Whites" have failed to score in 2 of their last 3 matches, and have conceded at least 2 goals in 4 of their last 5 Premier League games.
Manager Daniel Farke hopes his team can secure a second consecutive victory against Nottingham Forest, although in their last six encounters with this opponent, they have lost three and drawn three.
Leeds travel to City Ground with only one win in their last five matches, having lost three of their last four. Since returning to the Premier League, Farke's side have lost five of their six away games, their only exception being a 3-1 victory against bottom-of-the-table Wolverhampton in September.
