Match Preview

An interesting East Midlands derby kicks off the latest round of Premier League action on Friday.

Leicester have won their last two, which includes a dramatic 3-2 come-from-behind success against Southampton last Saturday. Forest bounced back from a three-game winless sequence with a hard-fought 1-0 win over Crystal Palace on Monday.

The Foxes have picked up wins in each of their last two home Premier League matches against their rivals, with their win in October 2022 being the first top-flight meeting between the sides since 1998-99.

However, Forest claimed a well-earned 2-0 win in the latest meeting between the sides in January 2023. But, they haven’t won consecutive league matches against the Foxes since December 2009.

At least four goals have been scored in all four matches between the sides at Leicester’s home ground in the Premier League. The Foxes could record three successive wins in the EPL for the first time since January 2021 on Friday.

Meanwhile, Forest are unbeaten in their last six away matches in the Premier League. This is their longest unbeaten sequence on the road in the top-flight since going 12 without defeat between February and October 1995.
