After losing 3-0 to Manchester City last midweek, Nottingham Forest returned to the same city to beat Manchester United 3-2 just a few days later to further underline their status as potential European qualifiers this season. That latest win now sees them enter this matchday sitting at the dizzying heights of fifth spot as manager Nuno Espírito Santo continues to work wonders with his Tricky Trees.

Next up on the fixture list is Aston Villa, a side that Nottingham Forest have won just one of their last 11 Premier League games against (D5, L5), which could dampen spirits a little ahead of kick-off. How the hosts would love to better that record here, especially as they play their 5,000th match in English Football League history, becoming the only 12th club to reach that milestone.

Aston Villa arrive at the City Ground on the back of their own 3-2 victory as they beat RB Leipzig in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday. That put the visitors in the top eight spots of the league-phase table, but now collective attention will quickly turn to extending their winning run in the English top flight to three matches.

That could be much easier said than done with a glance at the history of this corresponding fixture, despite their good overall recent record record against Nottingham Forest, as Aston Villa haven’t won an away Premier League clash with Forest since all the way back in January 1995, failing to win on their last five such trips here (D4, L1). Unai Emery’s side have also found the going tough on the road domestically of late, losing each of their last three league games on their travels by at least a two-goal margin.

Players to watch: Morgan Gibbs-White scored in Nottingham Forest’s win over Manchester United on Saturday, while he also struck in his last meeting with Aston Villa. Another man who has netted in this fixture is Ollie Watkins, who has done so twice across his last three H2Hs, while Villa are unbeaten when he has scored for the club this term (W4, D2).

Hot stat: Nottingham Forest’s home Premier League games have averaged just two goals this season – a league-low figure ahead of the weekend.
