The Impressive Form of Forest Could Carry on Against Luton
1889

Nottingham Forest and Luton Town will meet this weekend in the Premier League after another set of international fixtures with two sides expected to fight relegation going toe-to-toe at the County Ground.

Despite many predicting Forest fighting relegation, the club are heading into this one after a fantastic start to life in the Premier League for what is their second season in a row in which they have been in the top flight.

Steve Cooper's side are sitting in 13th right now and have lost just three of their eight games thus far. What's more, they have also let in just 10 goals from these matches, which is the eighth best defensive record in the division.

The two victories for Forest have seen them defeat Chelsea at Stamford Bridge and Sheffield United back at home, while they have only suffered losses to the top teams such as Manchester City, Manchester United and Arsenal.

Luton are finally out of the relegation zone after securing a win three weeks ago when they travelled to Goodison Park and defeated Everton.

Tom Lockyear got a goal that day, as Carlton Morris scored another Premier League goal in the 2-1 victory.

The Hatters have, however, only won one game and could be sucked back into the bottom three with a loss here and other results going against them.

Luton have had to deal with injuries and suspensions throughout their entire time in the Premier League since earning promotion, and they head into this one with more to deal with.

Sambi Lokonga is going to be out for a few more weeks alongside Dan Potts and Jordan Clark. Amari'i Bell is facing a late fitness test but is unlikely to be fit for this one. Mads Andersen is also out of action here alongside Gabriel Osho.

As for Forest, their massive squad since coming into the Premier League has also seen them have lots of injuries.

Danilo is one of those who is set to miss out here and he will be joined by Nuno Tavares too. Olaoluwa Aina is nearing a return and he could come back into the squad here, while Taiwo Awoniyi has been missed but could sit on the sidelines for one more week.

Moussa Niakhate is ready to return with his suspension ending, but Gonzalo Montiel, Felipe and Serge Aurier are all out injured for this game.

Forebet predicts a win for Forest and under 2.5 goals.
