Tottenham Hotspur vs Nottingham Forest

Tottenham, England (Interstat) — A Tottenham Hotspur side seeking stability hosts a confident Nottingham Forest in a Premier League clash on Sunday, with the visitors looking to complete a rare season double over their more celebrated opponents.

The matchup at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is a reversal of the teams’ last meeting on Dec. 14, 2025, when Forest delivered a stunning 3-0 home victory. That result is part of a concerning trend for Spurs, who have won just once in their last ten league matches (1-5-4). They are coming off a 1-1 draw at Liverpool but preceded that with a damaging 3-1 home loss to Crystal Palace.

Nottingham Forest, sitting 14th in the table, arrives with stronger recent form. They earned a 1-0 home win over Fulham last weekend and secured a notable 2-2 draw at Manchester City earlier this month. Their resilience is underscored by earlier season results, including a goalless draw at Arsenal and a 2-2 draw with City at home.

For Tottenham, the match represents a critical opportunity to halt a slide that has seen them fall to 10th place. Their defensive frailties have been glaring, conceding multiple goals in six of their last ten outings. Manager Ange Postecoglou will demand a response in front of the home support.

Forest manager Nuno Espírito Santo, familiar with Spurs from his brief tenure in charge, will rely on a compact and counter-attacking approach that has proven effective against top-half opposition. His team has lost only once in its last five matches across all competitions.

The Interstat game simulator projects a 1-1 draw, a result that would extend Tottenham’s winless run but solidify Forest’s mid-table standing.

Injury reports for both clubs were not immediately available Friday.

Following this match, Tottenham faces a quick turnaround with a visit to Brentford next Sunday. Forest’s schedule intensifies in April, with a trip to Arsenal slated for April 11.

Kickoff is scheduled for 2 p.m. local time (1400 GMT) on Sunday, March 22.
