- Sunderland are in poor form: 1 win, 1 draw and 4 losses in 6 games, scoring just 3 goals and conceding 10. Their only win came at Leeds and their draw with Bournemouth is the only other positive. Losses to Brighton, Fulham (1-3), Liverpool and Arsenal (0-3) show they are being comprehensively outclassed by better sides. Defensively they have been very vulnerable and attacking output is minimal.
- Nottingham Forest have been toothless: 0 wins, 2 draws and 4 losses in 6 games, scoring just 3 goals and conceding 7. Draws with Fulham and Wolves are their only positives. Losses to Brighton, Liverpool, and Leeds (1-3) confirm a team that cannot win and rarely scores. Their defensive record is poor and attacking creativity appears completely absent. Momentum is at rock bottom.
- This is a clash between two struggling sides — Sunderland have at least won once while Forest have zero wins in six. Sunderland's home advantage should be enough to edge this miserable encounter. Expect a low-quality, low-scoring match with the home side grinding out a narrow win.
