Both Nottingham Forest and West Ham are desperate to win three points because they simply need to. Otherwise, these teams will fall even deeper into a crisis. Recent losses and failures hurt the morale in the locker room and the stands, which is why a defeat here is unacceptable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Forest has only one win in the last six events, which was against Bristol City in the replay of the FA Cup meeting. Even that victory came following the penalties, and it wasn’t a product of a good game. Compared to the start of the year, Nottingham’s performances have deteriorated, but the efficiency of their matches hasn’t. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Seven of the last ten have seen over 2.5 goals, while on the other side, only one during that stretch didn’t end with goals on both ends. The former European champs are offensive, and even though that takes a toll on defense, Forest isn’t changing its approach.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
