Nottingham take on the visitors Tottenham in the round 17 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Friday, December 15th at City Ground (Nottingham).
Nottingham Forest still have more victories in the European Cup than the current holder of the Big-Eared trophy, Manchester City. However, the focus is not on the illustrious history but on the present level. For a long time, this renowned club struggled in the Championship and, to a large extent, promoted to the Premier League by winning the playoffs in 2022, where they were not favorites. Later, even considering themselves as underdogs, Steve Cooper's charges managed to accumulate enough points to maintain their status in the Premier League. The task remains unchanged: simply survive in the Premier League. They started implementing it successfully with a couple of wins by the 4th round, having only four defeats after 11 matches. However, by the end of autumn, a decline set in as Nottingham Forest began losing consecutively. There was a 0-5 defeat against Fulham, not exactly a powerhouse. Against this backdrop, a draw with Wolverhampton was seen as a definite improvement.

Tottenham seems to be taking fans on a roller coaster ride. Under Pochettino, the Spurs became a powerhouse in English football and even reached the final of the Champions League. However, Mauricio was eventually dismissed, and since then, the club has only sporadically displayed good football and strong results. Conte, at first, was a hero, winning the race for the 4th place in an incredible style in 2022, but he failed to continue his success in the next season. As a result, in the spring, Hotspurs finished outside the European competition zone, leading to Kane's departure. The task for the new manager, Postecoglou, looked even more challenging. Nonetheless, his start in the Premier League was impressive. The Australian's honeymoon lasted for 10 rounds, bringing eight victories with a couple of draws. However, it all turned negative afterwards. Even scoring first, the London club ended up losing to everyone, managing only a draw against Manchester City. It's no wonder that the leader of the season recently found themselves outside the top 4. Therefore, the 4-1 victory over Newcastle was even a surprise, albeit a pleasant one.
Last season, Spurs confidently won both league matches. However, unexpectedly, they lost to Forest in the cup. Nottingham Forest are out of form, and even the inconsistent Hotspurs should handle them. Let's bet on the away team's victory.
Prediction for the match: Tottenham to win.
