Tottenham v Nottingham Forest predictions

Tottenham's dismal goalless draw with Milan leaves them facing up to the reality of another trophyless campaign and their week could get even worse after a Premier League clash at home to Nottingham Forest.

Spurs are odds-on favourites to shrug off a three-game winless sequence with a victory over 14th-placed Forest but it is hard to back them with any confidence.

Forest have generally struggled on their travels, taking six points from 12 away games, but they have lost just twice in nine league fixtures in 2023 and approach the weekend positioned four points above the drop zone.

Steve Cooper's side were 3-0 winners at home to Tottenham in the League Cup third round and could not have timed their visit to north London any better.

Tottenham will have had less than three days to recover from the physically and mentally draining experience of Wednesday evening and, barring a much-improved performance, it appears likely that their winless run will be extended.
