Current streaks

Recent form

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest have shown impressive form in recent weeks, maintaining a strong position of 3rd in the Premier League with 57 points from 31 games. The Reds have lost only once in their last six matches, showcasing resilience with three wins and two draws. Their defensive solidity is evident, having kept three clean sheets and conceding just 0.83 goals per game during this period. The standout result was a high-scoring 4-2 away victory against Ipswich Town, demonstrating their attacking prowess. Forest have also proven their ability to compete with top teams, securing a notable 1-0 win against Manchester City. While they've been involved in some tight contests, with 67% of their recent games seeing under 2.5 goals, Forest have maintained an unbeaten run of four matches prior to their most recent defeat against Aston Villa.

Everton

Everton's recent form has been characterised by a remarkable run of draws, with the Toffees sharing the spoils in five of their last six Premier League matches. This consistency in drawing games has seen them maintain their 15th position in the league table, albeit precariously close to the relegation zone with 35 points from 31 games. The Merseyside club have struggled to find the back of the net, scoring just six goals in their last six outings, while conceding seven. Their inability to keep clean sheets is evident, having gone nine games without one, and their last victory dates back more than six matches. Interestingly, 83% of Everton's recent games have seen both teams score, yet the majority (83%) have also featured under 2.5 goals, suggesting tight, low-scoring affairs. The standout result in this run was a 2-2 draw against Manchester United, which bucked the trend of 1-1 scorelines that have become somewhat of a hallmark for Everton in recent weeks.

Recent home/away form

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest have been in impressive form at home, remaining unbeaten in their last six matches at the City Ground. The Reds have secured four victories and two draws, showcasing their defensive prowess with four clean sheets in this period. Their attacking display has been equally noteworthy, netting 13 goals in six games, including a remarkable 7-0 thrashing of Brighton. Forest's recent home record features wins against top-tier opposition such as Manchester United and Manchester City, both by a narrow 1-0 margin. The team's solid defensive performances are evident in their low goals conceded average of 0.5 per game, while their attacking threat is clear with 2.17 goals scored per game. This strong home form has undoubtedly contributed to their current 3rd position in the league table.

Everton

Everton's recent away form has been a mixed bag, with the Toffees showing signs of improvement despite their lower-mid-table position. In their last six away matches, Everton have managed two wins, two draws, and two losses, demonstrating a level of consistency in their results. The team has been involved in predominantly low-scoring affairs, with five out of six matches featuring under 2.5 goals, highlighting their defensive resilience but also their struggle to find the back of the net consistently. Everton's goal difference in these away games stands at zero, having scored and conceded five goals each, averaging 0.83 goals per game both for and against. Notably, the Toffees managed to string together back-to-back away wins against Crystal Palace and Brighton, which would have boosted their confidence, although their most recent away trip ended in a narrow 1-0 defeat to local rivals Liverpool.
