Nottingham Forest and Tottenham seek first league win at City Ground
Saturday afternoon at the City Ground sees Nottingham Forest and Tottenham Hotspur clash in the third matchday of the Premier League season. Both sides enter the encounter looking to kickstart their campaigns after challenging starts to the new term.
Team news and expected lineups
Nottingham Forest are expected to line up with Matz Sels in goal, protected by a defensive unit featuring Neco Williams, Ola Aina, Murillo, Nikola Milenkovic, and Jair Cunha. The midfield trio is set to include Morgan Gibbs-White, James McAtee, and Xaver Schlager, while Igor Jesus and Dan Ndoye are expected to lead the attack. The hosts will be without Ibrahim Sangare, who remains sidelined due to injury.
For the visitors, Tottenham are expected to field Antonin Kinsky in goal behind a back four of Pedro Porro, Micky van de Ven, Jan Paul van Hecke, and Andrew Robertson. The midfield engine room should feature Rodrigo Bentancur, Sandro Tonali, and Archie Gray, tasked with supporting a front three of Mateus Fernandes, Omar Marmoush, and Mathys Tel. The visitors will look to this group to provide more attacking fluidity than they managed in their most recent league outing.
Nottingham Forest's search for momentum
Nottingham Forest arrive at this fixture following a hard-fought 2-2 draw away to Liverpool. While that result showed resilience, the team is still seeking its first victory of the Premier League season following an opening-round loss to Leeds United. The squad will be aiming to replicate the defensive stability they showed in their pre-season friendly win over Bayer Leverkusen to contain the visitors.
Tottenham's response to early pressure
Tottenham Hotspur are also looking to recover their rhythm after a difficult start to the Premier League campaign. Following a 3-0 loss to Brentford and a 2-0 defeat against Newcastle United, the pressure is on to secure a positive result. Their midweek EFL Cup performance, a 5-1 victory over Charlton Athletic, provided a glimpse of their attacking potential that they will hope to carry into this league match.
The head-to-head echo
Recent history between these two clubs has been remarkably one-sided in favour of Nottingham Forest. The hosts have enjoyed a strong run against Tottenham, including a 3-0 victory at the City Ground in December 2025 and a 3-0 win away in March 2026. These results will provide the home side with confidence, though Tottenham will be eager to break that sequence and reverse their recent fortunes against this specific opponent.
Tactical questions for the weekend
This match will likely be decided by which midfield can assert control in the centre of the pitch. With both sides relying on creative players like Gibbs-White and Tonali to transition play, the battle for possession will be critical. If Forest can maintain the defensive discipline they displayed against Liverpool, they may frustrate a Tottenham side that is clearly searching for its best form.
