Nottingham Forest aims for a double victory over Aston Villa.
Last weekend, Nottingham Forest secured an impressive 2-0 home win against West Ham United, with Taiwo Awoniyi and Callum Hudson-Odoi scoring crucial goals just before halftime and full-time, respectively. This victory marked Nuno Espirito Santo’s first win in 2024. Tomorrow, as they head to face Aston Villa, Forest aims to replicate their earlier 2-0 victory over Unai Emery’s side this season.
In anticipation of this match, let’s examine the expected starting lineup:
1. Matz Sels (GK)
2. Neco Williams (RB)
3. Moussa Niakhate (CB)
4. Murillo (CB)
5. Nuno Tavares (LB)
6. Ibrahim Sangare (DM)
7. Nicolas Dominguez (DM)
8. Anthony Elanga (RW)
9. Morgan Gibbs-White (AM)
10. Callum Hudson-Odoi (LW)
11. Taiwo Awoniyi (ST)
Giovanni Reyna is expected to remain on the bench, with Anthony Elanga starting in his place. The lineup also includes consistent performers like Morgan Gibbs-White and Nicolas Dominguez. Callum Hudson-Odoi, who has been in good form recently, will look to continue his goal-scoring streak. Taiwo Awoniyi leads the frontline after his goal-scoring performance in the previous match against West Ham.
This lineup reflects Forest’s strategy to maintain their winning momentum and secure another crucial victory.
