Recent form

Arsenal

Arsenal's recent form shows a mixed bag of results, with the Gunners struggling to find consistency. They are currently on a three-match winless streak in all competitions, having drawn with Chelsea and suffered defeats to Inter Milan and Newcastle United. Despite their fourth-place position in the league, Arsenal's goal-scoring form has dipped, netting just 1.17 goals per game in their last six matches. Defensively, they've been relatively solid, conceding 0.83 goals per game and keeping two clean sheets. The team's last six matches have been predominantly low-scoring affairs, with 67% of games featuring under 2.5 goals. Arsenal's most convincing result came in the League Cup, where they dispatched Preston 3-0, which stands out as their highest-scoring game in this period. The Gunners have shown resilience in tough fixtures, managing a draw against title contenders Liverpool, but their inability to secure wins against top-tier opposition may be a concern for fans and management alike.

Nottingham Forest

The Tricky Trees have gone on a notable three-match winning streak in the Premier League, which was only recently halted by a 3-1 defeat to Newcastle United. Their defensive record has been particularly strong, conceding just one goal per game on average over the last six matches and keeping two clean sheets. Forest's attack has also been potent, scoring nine goals in their last six outings, with a highlight being their 3-0 victory over West Ham. The team's results have been evenly split between high and low-scoring affairs, with 50% of their recent matches featuring over 2.5 goals. Despite the recent loss, Forest's overall form remains positive, with three wins, one draw, and two losses in their last six games, suggesting they are a team to watch in the upper echelons of the Premier League table.
