West Ham vs Nottingham Forest

Current streaks

Recent form

West Ham

West Ham's recent form has been mixed, with the Hammers struggling to find consistency in their last six Premier League matches. They have managed just one win, coming in their most recent outing against Manchester United, which also marked their only clean sheet in this period. The team have shown resilience, securing three draws, but have also suffered two defeats. Notably, West Ham have been involved in some high-scoring encounters, particularly the 3-2 loss to Brighton and the 2-2 draw with Bournemouth. Their goal difference over these six games is perfectly balanced at zero, having scored and conceded nine goals each, averaging 1.5 goals per game both for and against. Interestingly, both teams have scored in 83% of these matches, highlighting West Ham's ability to find the net but also their defensive vulnerabilities.

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest's recent form has been somewhat inconsistent, with the team struggling to find consistent success in their last six matches. The Reds have managed just one win in this period, a notable 2-1 away victory against Tottenham Hotspur, which stands out as their most impressive result. Their defensive record has been a concern, having conceded in all six games and failing to keep a clean sheet in their last seven matches. Forest have been involved in predominantly low-scoring affairs, with four out of six games seeing under 2.5 goals. Despite their mixed form, Forest have maintained a respectable 7th position in the league table with 62 points from 36 games, suggesting they have performed well over the course of the season. However, their recent goal-scoring record of just 0.83 goals per game in the last six matches indicates a need for improvement in attack if they hope to secure a strong finish to the campaign.

Recent home/away form

West Ham

West Ham's recent home form has been characterised by inconsistency and a struggle to secure victories. The Hammers have managed only one win in their last six home matches, with that solitary triumph coming against Leicester. Notably, West Ham have drawn their last three home games, suggesting a pattern of stalemate outcomes. The team have been involved in predominantly low-scoring affairs, with five out of six matches seeing fewer than 2.5 goals. Despite their 15th position in the league, West Ham have shown some defensive resilience at home, conceding just one goal per game on average and keeping a clean sheet against Leicester. However, their attacking output has been limited, with the team scoring only six goals across these six matches, averaging one goal per game. The fact that both teams have scored in 50% of these fixtures indicates that while West Ham have struggled to dominate, they have often remained competitive in their home encounters.

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest's recent away form has been a mixed bag, with the team showing both resilience and vulnerability on their travels. The Tricky Trees have managed to score in five out of their last six away matches, demonstrating their attacking prowess with an impressive average of 1.83 goals per game. However, their defensive record has been less stellar, conceding an average of 1.67 goals per match. Forest's away fixtures have been high-scoring affairs, with 67% of their games featuring over 2.5 goals, including a thrilling 4-3 loss to Newcastle United. Despite the defensive frailties, Forest have shown their ability to compete against top opposition, securing a notable 2-1 victory at Tottenham Hotspur. The team's inconsistency is evident in their alternating pattern of results, but they have avoided any extended runs of consecutive wins or losses in their recent away outings.
