Nottingham are placed 14th in the Premier League table with 26 points from 25 games, while Tottenham are sitting fourth with 45 points from 26 matches.
Tottenham Hotspur will be keen to bounce back from recent setbacks when they play host to Nottingham Forest in the Premier League. The Saturday evening contest will be extremely important for both sides due to various reasons. Spurs would be keen to stop their recent poor run of form, while Forest will be eager to steer clear of the relegation zone. With a lot riding on this match, both sides will be desperate to get the maximum points.
The last couple of weeks have been one to forget for the North London club. In this period, they had to exit from two cup tournaments – FA Cup and Champions League. With the team also far away from the top spot in the Premier League table, it is safe to say that Spurs are on route to end another season without a silverware. Champions League was never considered as a realistic trophy opportunity, however, the manner in which they exited against AC Milan would have left many of their supporters disappointed.
Thereby, Spurs will be eager to get their season back on track and what better way to do it than getting three points on Saturday. However, it will not be easy against a Forest side who are capable of giving a tough fight to anyone on a given day. Nottingham Forest have done incredibly well to move out of the relegation zone after finding themselves in the bottom three places for long period. However, inconsistencies of late has prevented them to move clear of the bottom three places. As things stand, Nottingham Forest are placed 14th in the Premier League table with 26 points from 25 games, while Tottenham Hotspur are sitting fourth with 45 points from 26 matches.
