Match Stats

A week after securing three crucial points with a 2-0 home victory over West Ham United, Nottingham Forest faced a setback with a 4-2 defeat away against Aston Villa last Saturday. Despite Moussa Niakhate and Morgan Gibbs-White scoring on either side of halftime, narrowing the deficit after Villa took a commanding three-goal lead within the first 39 minutes, Leon Bailey's goal just after the hour mark reestablished Villa's two-goal advantage. Unfortunately, there was no comeback for Forest, marking their 14th league defeat of the season and their fourth top-flight loss since the start of the year.

Manchester United approached last weekend's Premier League encounter with Fulham in high spirits, having strung together a four-game winning streak to kick-start February on a positive note. This positive atmosphere coincided with the confirmation of Sir Jim Ratcliffe's 27.7% purchase of the club. However, just a few days after Ratcliffe expressed his commitment to helping the Red Devils challenge rivals Manchester City and Liverpool for supremacy in English football, Erik ten Hag's team faced a setback in their pursuit of a top-four finish. They suffered a 2-1 defeat to Fulham at Old Trafford.


Prediction: Nottingham Forest 1:2 Manchester United
