In this round of the league, Nottingham Forest played Manchester City at home, and almost no one believed that the home team could get points before the game, because now Manchester City has been red-eyed, and they must win all of them to be sure of turning the tables and winning the championship. This month, Manchester City have not dropped a point in the Premier League, and although Nottingham Forest are playing at home, they cannot stop Manchester City.
Sure enough, Nottingham Forest's resistance lasted only half an hour, and the home side were deflated when Gvardiol nodded in front of the goal.
In the second half, Guardiola also brought Haaland off the bench, and the Norwegian genius soon delivered a critical blow to Nottingham Forest.
On the counter-attack, Haaland received the ball and then got off the home defender to get up and slotted the ball into the far corner. As soon as Haaland scored this goal, Nottingham Forest were completely desperate, and in the end they also lost 0-2 to Manchester City, plus the previous defeat away to Everton, Nottingham Forest suffered two consecutive defeats in the Premier League.
The 0-2 defeat in this game also changed the relegation situation of the Premier League overnight. With only three rounds remaining, Nottingham Forest, Luton Town and Burnley are only two points apart. Judging from the schedule, Nottingham Forest wants to be relegated, I am afraid it will be a little difficult, they will be overtaken at any time and eventually relegated.
Next, Nottingham Forest will play Sheffield United, Chelsea and Burnley, these three games, only Sheffield United is relatively easy, the other two games, Nottingham Forest can not get a point at any time. Especially in the away game against Burnley, once the opponent still has any hope of relegation, they will definitely fight hard at home, when Nottingham Forest will be attacked at any time.
Compared with Nottingham Forest, Luton's schedule is much easier, the remaining 3 games, they have 2 home games, the opponents are Everton and Fulham, the 2 teams have been relegated in advance, the fighting spirit will not be too high, if Luton can get 6 points, even if they lose to West Ham away, Luton have a chance to be relegated. However, Luton's current form is sluggish, which could affect their relegation prospects.
Among the three teams, Burnley's schedule is the most difficult, their three opponents are Newcastle, Tottenham Hotspur and Nottingham Forest, after the away draw with Manchester United, Burnley has been unbeaten in 3 rounds, in order to relegate they broke out of super combat effectiveness, even if they face a strong team, Burnley will be crazy to grab points, if you can get at least 3 points on Newcastle and Tottenham, and then beat Nottingham Forest at home, then Burnley has hope to stay.
Judging from the schedule, Luton have the best hope of relegation, if they can find their form as soon as possible, as long as they play two home games, they have hope of turning the tables, while Nottingham Forest is very dangerous, they will be overtaken by their opponents at any time, and finally regret relegation. In fact, if it weren't for the four points deducted, Nottingham Forest's situation would be very optimistic, and for them, these four points are too deadly, which could decide their fate this season!
