Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal

Arsenal have failed to score in back-to-back Premier League games (vs West Ham and Nottingham Forest) for the first time since May 2023 (vs Brighton and Forest).

Nottingham Forest drew 0-0 in the Premier League for the first time since October 2023 v Crystal Palace, ending a run of 56 league games without one; among current Premier League clubs, only Spurs (107) were on a longer ongoing run in the top-flight without a goalless draw heading into Matchday 27.

Arsenal have drawn nine of their 27 Premier League games this season (W15 L3), their most stalemates in a league campaign since 2019-20 (14).

Nottingham Forest have lost seven of their last eight Premier League games against Arsenal, with the exception being a 1-0 home win in May 2023.

Arsenal won this exact fixture 2-1 last season, but haven’t won consecutive away league games against Nottingham Forest since a run of four between 1987 and 1990.

Nottingham Forest have alternated between failing to win (D1 L5) and winning (5) in their last 11 midweek (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday) Premier League games, drawing 1-1 against Liverpool last time out in January.

Arsenal have won 12 of their last 13 evening kick-offs (7pm or later) in the Premier League, including their last nine in a row since a 2-0 home loss to West Ham in December 2023.

Nottingham Forest have won five of their last six Premier League home games (D1), as many as they had in their previous 20 (D4 L11).
