Here we have the Tottenham Hotspur vs. Nottingham Forest match, which promises to be exciting! Both clubs have a lot riding on this game as Tottenham is fighting for a Champions League qualifying spot while Nottingham Forest is fighting for relegation.

Tottenham: ranked fifth With a victory in this game, Spurs may move over Aston Villa into what may ultimately be the final Champions League qualifying spot. They were denied the opportunity to do so the last time around when they were defeated 1–1 by West Ham at the London Stadium. But, there is a cloud over this game because last night there was a fatal occurrence in the same neighbourhood as Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. Many of the roads that fans typically use have been blocked off as a result, although Spurs earlier on Sunday stated that the game will proceed as scheduled.

Nottm Forest:

In the middle of the week, Forest, who are near the bottom of the standings, defeated Fulham 3-1 at the City Ground to extend their winning run to three games. The Reds can move three points clear of the dotted line and cut the gap on Brentford and Everton above them with a victory in north London. Despite their victory yesterday, the team is still very much in the running for relegation, level on points with 18th-placed Luton.
