Team set-up
How will the two teams line up?
Confirmed line-ups are published about an hour before kick-off.
Home
Tottenham Hotspur
Spurs are well drilled and have enough quality up front to punish mistakes at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Everything they do starts with control of midfield.
Away
Nottingham Forest
Expect Forest to sit compact on their trip to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and wait for one chance rather than try to control the match.
Risk radar
What could change the prediction?
The news that would move our numbers before kick-off.
If Spurs name a weakened XI
Rotation or a missing key player would cut several points from their win chance. Line-ups are out an hour before kick-off.
If Forest score first
The favourite has to chase the game, and both the draw and the upset become much more likely.
If a red card comes in the first hour
Going down to ten men changes the expected-goals picture completely, whichever side it hits.
Preview
Spurs vs Forest match preview
Tottenham Hotspur host Nottingham Forest in front of their own fans, and the Goexch numbers lean towards Spurs. The expected-goals gap (2.09 for Spurs, 0.88 for Forest) is the clearest signal, and it is where our 65% for Spurs comes from. Forest's best chance is to keep it level into the last 30 minutes, when the draw becomes a real possibility.
