Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham Hotspur Head-to-Head and Key Numbers
Tottenham Hotspur have a good historical record against Nottingham Forest and have won 59 out of the 125 matches played between the two teams, as opposed to Nottingham Forest's 37 victories.
After a run of six victories in seven matches against Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League between 1993 and 1997, Nottingham Forest have lost each of their last six such games in the competition.
After failing to win their first four matches away from home against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League, Tottenham Hotspur have won each of their last three such games in the competition.
Tottenham Hotspur are unbeaten in their last 16 matches on Boxing Day in the Premier League, with their previous such defeat coming by a 2-0 defeat at the hands of Portsmouth in the 2003-04 season.
Prediction: Nottingham Forest 2-2 Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham may be able to boast the Premier League's best defensive record away from home alongside Manchester United, but that will count for little against an inspired Forest side if their recent vulnerabilities are exposed once again. Postecoglou's men can still fight fire with fire on their day, though, and Forest have seldom outplayed the Lilywhites in recent times, so another engrossing encounter may end with honours even.
