Event Preview
This weekend presents a huge opportunity for Nottingham Forest, as they must claim maximum points to get their Champions League challenge back on track. The Tricky Trees come into this round after winning just once across their last five Premier League matches, and they could only play out a draw against Crystal Palace on Monday.
Leicester have already been relegated to the second tier this season, and the writing has been on the wall for an extended period. The Foxes should come into this East Midlands derby in good confidence, though. They picked up just a fifth win of the season last weekend after overcoming rock-bottom Southampton at the King Power Stadium.

Nottingham Forest hold the advantage against Leicester, but they will be looking to achieve their first league double over their local rivals since 1994-95 on Sunday. The Tricky Trees have lost just once in their last 18 home matches against Leicester in the league, winning on 12 occasions across that period.
Forest’s recent run of form would be a major concern, as they have won just once in their last five. Meanwhile, they could suffer back-to-back home defeats on Sunday for the first time since December 2023.
Leicester will be aiming to record back-to-back wins in the Premier League for the first time since October. However, the Foxes have gone six without a win on the road, and they have conceded 14 goals across that period and scored just twice.
Nottingham Forest vs. Leicester Picks
This is a golden opportunity for Forest to get their season back on track. While their recent form has been below the standard required, we expect them to claim maximum points against a poor Leicester side at the City Ground on Sunday.
