Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham Preview
Nottingham Forest, under Portuguese manager Nuno Espírito Santo, have been one of the surprises of the Premier League this season. Their excellent form has lifted them to 4th place, with Champions League football firmly in their sights. Defensive solidity from players like Nikola Milenković and Murillo and midfield contributions from Morgan Gibbs-White and Anderson have been crucial to their success.
In contrast, Tottenham, coached by Angelos Postecoglou, have underperformed relative to expectations. A disappointing season, including a staggering 6-3 home loss to Liverpool in their last league match, has raised doubts among fans about Postecoglou’s methods and his ability to maximize the squad's potential.
