Nottingham Forest confirmed lineup vs Tottenham

Nottingham Forest have named their starting XI for today’s Premier League meeting with Tottenham Hotspur at the City Ground.

Both teams are still waiting for their first league win of the season. Forest have one point from their opening two matches, while Tottenham have lost both and are yet to score in the league.

Oliver Glasner has made one notable change in attack, with Liam Delap starting ahead of Igor Jesus.

Nottingham Forest confirmed lineup vs Tottenham

Matz Sels starts in goal for the Reds, with Jair Cunha, Nikola Milenkovic and Murillo making up the back three.

Ola Aina and Neco Williams are the two wider players, with Xaver Schlager and James McAtee in midfield.

Further forward, Dan Ndoye and Morgan Gibbs-White will support Delap, who gets the nod through the middle.

Nottingham Forest XI:

Matz Sels; Jair Cunha, Nikola Milenkovic, Murillo; Ola Aina, Xaver Schlager, James McAtee, Neco Williams; Dan Ndoye, Morgan Gibbs-White; Liam Delap.

Forest come into the game after picking up their first point of the campaign at Anfield. Ndoye scored his first goal of the season against Liverpool before Gibbs-White restored the lead from the penalty spot in the 2-2 draw.

Delap’s inclusion gives him another chance to make an impression after his promising debut off the bench against Liverpool.

Tottenham, meanwhile, arrive after league defeats to Brentford and Newcastle United, although they did beat Charlton Athletic 5-1 in the EFL Cup.

Oliver Glasner will now be hoping this XI can finally deliver Forest’s first three points of the season.
