The Reds are currently enjoying a three-game unbeaten run, which includes two consecutive wins and a draw against Chelsea. Their defensive record has been particularly noteworthy, conceding only 0.83 goals per game over the last six matches and keeping two clean sheets. Forest have also demonstrated their ability to grind out results, with 67% of their recent games featuring under 2.5 goals. Their away form has been especially strong, securing victories at both Leicester and Liverpool, the latter being a notable scalp. The 3-1 win against Leicester stands out as their highest-scoring game in this period, showcasing their attacking potential. With 16 points from 9 games and sitting in 7th position, Nottingham Forest are proving to be a formidable side in the Premier League this season.

The Hammers have struggled defensively, failing to keep a clean sheet in their last eight games and conceding an average of 2.5 goals per match. Their attacking output has been moderate, scoring 1.5 goals per game, but they've been involved in several high-scoring affairs, with 83% of their matches seeing over 2.5 goals. Notably, West Ham suffered heavy defeats against Liverpool (5-1) in the League Cup and Tottenham (4-1) in the Premier League, but bounced back with a convincing 4-1 victory over Ipswich Town. Despite their mixed results, the Hammers have shown resilience, most recently securing a 2-1 win against Manchester United, which could potentially kickstart a turnaround in their Premier League campaign.

Recent home/away form

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest's recent home form has been characterised by a series of tight, low-scoring encounters. The Reds have been remarkably consistent in their last six home fixtures, with four consecutive draws followed by a loss and a win. Their defensive solidity is evident, having conceded only four goals in these matches, matching their offensive output. Notably, all six games have seen under 2.5 goals, highlighting Forest's tendency for close contests at the City Ground. Their most recent victory against Crystal Palace broke a five-match winless streak at home, potentially signalling a turning point in their form. Despite their mid-table league position, Forest have struggled to convert draws into wins, with half of their recent home games ending with both teams on the scoresheet.

West Ham's recent away form has been inconsistent, with only one win in their last five competitive matches on the road. The Hammers have struggled defensively, conceding an average of 2.33 goals per game in their last six outings, including two particularly high-scoring defeats against Tottenham (4-1) and Liverpool (5-1). Their sole clean sheet came in a 2-0 victory over Crystal Palace, which stands out as their best away performance. West Ham have shown a tendency to be involved in high-scoring affairs, with an average of 3.5 total goals per game and both teams scoring in 83% of their matches. Despite their defensive frailties, the team have managed to find the back of the net consistently, scoring in five of their last six away games across all competitions.
