They have scored a combined total of 6 goals in their last five matches but also conceded a massive total of 13 goals in these games. This showcases the challenges which are being faced by their defensive side lately, and it could further allow Nottingham Forest to score a goal in the game. Moreover, considering their previous records, it is likely that Crystal Palace will win the next game against Nottingham Forest without a clean sheet.

On the other hand, Nottingham Forest had an impressive start to the current campaign of the Premier League, but due to their recent losses, they have dropped down to the 6th spot with 18 wins and 10 losses in 34 matches.

Chris Wood still remains the star striker for Nottingham Forest this season, holding 19 goals and 3 assists to his name in 32 appearances. Wood will also require the contribution from other goal scorers of the team such as Morgan Gibbs-White, with 5 goals and 7 assists in 30 appearances, Ryan Yates, with 2 goals and an assist in 31 appearances, Elliot Anderson, with 2 goals and 6 assists in 33 appearances, Taiwo Awoniyi, with a goal in 25 appearances, Anthony Elanga, with 6 goals and 9 assists in 34 appearances, Callum Hudson-Odoi, with 5 goals and 2 assists in 29 appearances, Jota Silva, with 3 goals and an assist in 28 appearances, Ramón Sosa, with a goal in 18 appearances, Ola Aina, with 2 goals and an assist in 31 appearances, Neco Williams, with a goal and 2 assists in 31 appearances, Nikola Milenkovic, with 4 goals and 2 assists in 33 appearances, and Murillo, with a goal in 33 appearances.
