Nottingham Forest continue their hunt for a first Premier League win since the opening weekend as they welcome an in-form Manchester United to the City Ground. Kenyan football fans will be watching closely — especially punters who’ve seen United deliver big on slips in recent weeks.
📰 Match Preview and Current Form
Nottingham Forest: Desperate for a Turnaround
Sean Dyche’s arrival has brought mixed fortunes to the Midlands, with two matches ending 2-0 (one win, one defeat). However, Forest remain in a worrying run — winless in eight Premier League outings (D2, L6).
Their struggles in front of goal are glaring: four straight league defeats without scoring, and only two home wins since beating United last April. Dyche needs to rediscover that fortress mentality fast, but confidence is fragile.
Manchester United: Finally Finding Rhythm
Ruben Amorim’s team has finally found its groove. United won all three league games in October, becoming one of the league’s hottest attacking sides with 14 goals since matchday three, second only to Arsenal points-wise in that period.
Their dramatic away win at Anfield broke a long eight-match winless road streak, and momentum is clearly on their side. Faith in Amorim’s tactics is growing, and United will aim to secure back-to-back away league wins.
