On December 14, another Premier League clash will take place at the City Ground, where Nottingham Forest will host Tottenham Hotspur.

Nottingham Forest continues to dangerously hover near the relegation zone. The team collected 9 points from their last five matches, but this is still not enough to feel safe as the season approaches its midpoint.

Tottenham Hotspur, meanwhile, finally seems to be climbing out of the slump caused by a tough run of fixtures against Chelsea, Manchester United and Arsenal. Spurs managed to secure an important draw away at Newcastle in Matchweek 14 and followed it with a 2–0 win over Brentford in Matchweek 15.

Prediction for the Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham Hotspur

Overall, Tottenham looks stronger at the moment, but playing away could neutralize some of their advantages. Both sides desperately need all three points, meaning a draw won’t suit either of them. The match is likely to be cautious, possibly even slow at times, but in the end Tottenham should have the edge. My prediction: a win for Spurs.
