Injuries and Suspensions
Nottingham Forest host Coventry City at the City Ground on Saturday, September 19, in a Matchday 5 Premier League fixture that carries very different weight for the two sides.
Oliver Glasner's Forest come into this one in reasonable shape, sitting 11th in the table after a mixed but promising start. Their last league outing produced a 1-2 win at Aston Villa, and draws against Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool earlier in the campaign show they are capable of competing with the division's stronger sides.
Coventry, by contrast, arrive at the City Ground in crisis. Frank Lampard's newly promoted side are rooted to the bottom of the Premier League table with zero points from four games and, more alarmingly, zero goals scored in the league. Their 5-0 home defeat to Brighton last weekend equalled an unwanted top-flight record for failing to score in the opening four fixtures of a season.
The Sky Blues have now lost their last four league matches without finding the net, and a midweek Carabao Cup trip to Aston Villa — a 3-1 defeat — did nothing to restore confidence ahead of this trip to Nottingham.
Forest's Liam Delap has attracted attention as one of the more dangerous strikers in the division this season, with pundits already calling on England manager Thomas Tuchel to consider him as a long-term successor to Harry Kane. A home fixture against the league's most vulnerable defence is precisely the kind of stage the young forward will want to perform on.
Lampard has spoken honestly about the scale of the challenge facing his side, calling for realism after the Brighton humiliation. Coventry need a response, and fast.

Form
Nottingham Forest's last five matches show a record of two wins, two draws, and one loss. Their most recent result was a 1-2 Premier League victory at Aston Villa on September 12. Earlier in the run, Forest drew 2-2 with Liverpool and held Tottenham Hotspur to a goalless stalemate, though they suffered back-to-back defeats to Leeds United — once in the Carabao Cup and once in the league. Across those five matches, Forest scored five goals and conceded five.
Coventry's last five results make for grim reading: four defeats and one win. Their only victory came in the Carabao Cup against Plymouth Argyle, winning 4-2 away from home. In their four most recent matches since that cup tie, they have lost every game — including a 5-0 Premier League thrashing at home to Brighton and a 3-1 Carabao Cup defeat at Aston Villa on September 16. Coventry have scored just one goal across their last four matches and conceded ten.
