The City Ground will be buzzing with anticipation coming into this match, with the home fans keen to see their team spring an upset against the 20-time English champions. Forest have already claimed some big scalps since their promotion, having beaten Liverpool and Tottenham on home turf earlier this season. With the attacking talents of players like Brennan Johnson and Morgan Gibbs-White, the Reds will be confident of troubling United’s at times shaky defense.

However, the Red Devils come into this clash with the wind in their sails, having won their last three Premier League matches scoring ten goals in the process. The likes of Marcus Rashford and Bruno Fernandes have hit top form, while big summer signing Casemiro has added some much-needed steel in midfield. Ten Hag seems to have settled on a system that is getting the best out of hisattacking talents, so United will pose a major threat going forward.

This match could well come down to which defense holds firm. United’s backline has looked vulnerable despite recent improvements, conceding 32 goals already this season. Forest’s goals against tally stands at 30, so there could be plenty of entertainment for the fans. Set pieces and defensive errors could prove crucial, making it a very tense affair for both managers on the touchline.

When these famous clubs last met in 2019, United claimed a 3-0 win in a League Cup clash at the City Ground. But with Forest’s home support behind them this time around, they will be targeting at least a pointfrom this game. It has the makings of a proper Premier League encounter with both teams desperate to kick-start their seasons with a vital win. Just a few days to go until this crunch battle!
