Nottingham take on the visitors Crystal Palace in the round 8 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Monday, October 21st at City Ground (Nottingham).
Nottingham Forest have made some smart managerial decisions in recent years. First, relatively unknown coach Steve Cooper managed to guide the historic club, which had been stuck in the Championship for years, back to the Premier League. Then, he was able to keep a heavily revamped squad in the top flight. Last winter, Cooper was replaced by Nuno Espírito Santo, and under the Portuguese coach, the team overcame challenges, such as having points deducted for financial fair play violations. This season, Nuno has continued to lead his side to some impressive results. Most notably, they pulled off a 1-0 victory at Anfield, Liverpool’s only slip-up under Slot. They also earned a 1-1 draw against Chelsea in the last round.

Crystal Palace have been a big disappointment so far. The "Eagles" are making another attempt to break out of the pack of mid-table Premier League teams with no real aspirations. Once again, they parted ways with Roy Hodgson. They brought in Oliver Glasner with the hope that the Austrian could adapt to English football. He managed to achieve some good results, often securing impressive victories. After that, even with the sale of Olise and a few other players, expectations for the London club were high, with some even hoping for a push towards European competition. However, they have been disappointing, only winning in the League Cup. In the Premier League, they have recorded three draws, against Chelsea, Manchester United, and Leicester, but have lost all other matches, including recent defeats to Everton and Liverpool. The coach hasn’t been sacked yet, but how much more patience will there be? "Old Roy" has already been spotted in the stands...
The last three encounters between these clubs ended in uneventful draws, either 0-0 or 1-1. Nottingham Forest are playing at home, making them justifiably the favorites. However, both teams tend to play pragmatically, especially against each other—expect a "total under 2.5 goals" in this match.
Prediction for the match: Under 2.5 scored goals.
