Tottenham V Nottingham Forest: Alignments, Statistics and Preview

Party preview for Tottenham V Nottingham Forest

Tottenham welcomes a family face in northern London on Easter Monday, while they will collide with Nottingham Forest, now under the leadership of the ex-Boss Nuno Spirito Santo.

While Ange Postecoglou’s side almost kept his European hopes alive with a tenacious quarter -final victory in the Europa League, Forest struggles to bring back to the Champions League football on the city field for the first time in decades.

After gaining a 2-1 hard victory over Eintracht Frankfurt, the European Spurs Adventure continues, and so does Ange Postecoglou’s mandate.

The Australian manager, always the optimist, joked after the victory: “They should set himself with him for a while longer.” A quip did after the crucial penalty of Dominic Solanke who marked the tone for a defensive exhibition in Germany.

Tottenham is now preparing for a semifinal in a Norwegian Bodo/Glimt dress, but its domestic form is still unpleasant.

With 17 league defeats this season, its worst account since 2003-04, Spurs sits near the wrong end of the table.

Losses to teams such as wolves and poor results against the opposition of half (eight defeats in their last nine games of this type) highlight the scale of the challenge. Since its 4-0 emphatic victory over Manchester City in November, only Leicester, Southampton and Ipswich have won fewer points.

However, Spurs can cling to its recent home shape, with an unbeaten route of four games in all competitions in its base in northern London.

Team news for Tottenham v Nottingham Forest

Spurs victory in Frankfurt reached a price. James Maddison, who won the decisive penalty, was forced after a strong collision with goalkeeper Kaua Santos.

Postecoglou later revealed that there was no serious injury, so the midfielder may still appear on Monday. However, Captain Son Heck-Unc will remain due to a persistent foot problem, while Radu Dragusin continues to recover an ACL tear.

With the missing son, Mathys Tel has increased. The teenager taken from Bayern Munich has marked in his last two league outings and could make the story as a first teenager to clean in three consecutive games of the Premier League.

Nuno Esperito Santo offered little clarity in the team’s selection, saying only that Ola Aina (beef) and Taiwo Awoniyi (thigh) would be valued “day by day”. Despite a poor demonstration against Everton, it is expected that the head of the forest will remain with most of its initial 11, with Anthony Elanga, who will replace Jota Silva.
