Forest & Villa to Share Spoils at City Ground

Nottingham Forest are having a fine season in England’s top flight, collecting 25 points from 15 games. Nuno Espirito Santo’s side picked up another statement win in their last one, beating Manchester United 3-2 at Old Trafford.

Aston Villa have shown a massive improvement since the turn of the month, picking up three successive victories. After back-to-back league wins against Brentford and Southampton, Unai Emery’s men won at RB Leipzig in the UEFA Champions League in midweek.

These two teams are evenly matched, as just goal difference separates the pair in the Premier League table. They have identical records in terms of results, winning seven, drawing four, and losing four.

This promises to be an entertaining game between two sides pushing for Europe, but who will come out on top in this all-Midlands matchup?
