Command Analysis

Southampton

England

Nathan Jonesand his charges suffered the fifth consecutive defeat in the Premier League the other day. James Ward-Prowse scored an own goal in the 36th minute, and then found the back of Fulham's net in the second half. They game ended with a score of 1:2 to Fulham.

Southampton won only one home game this season, way back in August. Moreover, they lost nine games at Saint Mary's, which is the worst result since season 1997-98. The Saints will hope to improve their home record.

Livramento, Larios, Walcott, and McCarthy have been ruled out.

Nottingham Forest

England

Steve Cooper and his charges got a draw against Chelsea (1:1), which boosted the team's confidence. However, this happened at Nottingham Forest's home arena. The team has the worst away record in the league, on average, they concede 2.75 goals per away game.

The Tricky Trees are currently in 18th place in the table with 14 points to their name, and they need to win tonight to strengthen their standings. They will have to do that without Richards, Niakhate, Lingard, Biancone, and Kouyate.
