This Premier League clash takes place at the City Ground in Nottingham, England and kicks off on Thursday, December 26 at 3:00 p.m. local time.
This is what that time was like in the United States:
Nuno Espirito Santos mostly has a full squad to choose from for the visit of Spurs, though Ibrahim Sangare remains out long-term due to a hamstring injury and is tentatively looking at a February return.
Danilo will sit in front of the Christmas lights with an ankle problem and hopes to return as soon as possible after the New Year.
Nicolás Domínguez won his fifth yellow card and will miss the Boxing Day by suspension.
Nottingham Forest line-up (3-4-2-1, from to left): Sels (GK) – Milenkovic, Murillo, Morato – Aina, Gibbs-White, Anderson, Williams – Elanga, Hudson-Odoi – Wood
Injured: Sangaré (thigh), Danilo (ankle) Sanctioned: Domínguez (accumulation of yellow cards)
The great update for Tottenham is that midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur returns after having fulfilled his long national suspension for a racist insult opposed to his teammate, his Heung-min. However, it can begin at the bank, since it has been limited to departures in the Europa League since November 10.
Injuries continue to play a part in Spurs’ problems, and they will continue to be without goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario, defenders Ben Davies, Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven, as well as forwards Richarlison and Wilson Odobert when they travel to Nottingham.
Mikey Moore was absent due to illness and asks for more education before returning, via Postcoglou, and Timo Werner was also reinforced by a fever, the German being an unused replacement against LiverpoolArray. It remains to be noted whether it is thought of as enough to potentially appear here.
Destiny Udogie, on the other hand, has a strong chance of returning to action at Forest after also remaining on the bench throughout the 6-3 loss. The Italian limped off during their 5-0 rout of Southampton, and is set to be eased back in.
Predicted Tottenham lineup (4-3-3, left): Forster (GK) – Porro, dragusin, Gray, Spence – Kulusevski, Bissouma, Maddison – Johnson, Solanke, son
Injured: Vicario (foot), Davies, Romero, Van de Ven, Richarlison, Odobert (all thigh), Moore (illness)Suspended: None
Tottenham Hotspur have a record against Nottingham Forest heading into this match, having won their last six meetings against them.
However, Nottingham Forest have been opposed to the ‘Big 6’ this season, and they will most likely emerge victorious against an inconsistent Tottenham Hotspur.
