After sluggish beginnings to the season, both sides enter tonight’s game in dire need of three points.
As the bottom-placed team in the Premier League standings, hosts Nottingham Forest have dropped their last five games.
After losing 4-0 to their neighbourhood rivals Leicester last week, they dropped to 20th place, putting pressure on manager Steve Cooper. However, Cooper has since extended his contract with the team through 2025.
Aston Villa is now in 16th place, just two spots and two points above the danger zone for relegation.
Four of Steven Gerrard’s team’s first five league games ended in losses, but a shock draw against Manchester City at the beginning of September began their current run of three straight victories.
Villa also improved defensively, giving up only one goal in their last three games—to Erling Haaland.
In their last four games, all of which took place in the Championship, Forest is unbeaten against Villa, with the West Midlands team winning on three of those occasions.
In their previous 14 games dating back to 1995, Forest has only managed one victory versus Villa.
