Nottingham Forest host Everton at the City Ground in the Premier League tonight.
Sean Dyche faces his former team in the club’s final league fixture of 2025. Forest have made notable improvement since Dyche’s appointment in October, but work is required to pull clear of trouble.
A narrow defeat to Manchester City last time out made it three defeats in four games. Those results leave Forest 17th, five points clear of the relegation places.
Everton are searching for a first win since beating Forest 3-0 on December 6th. The Toffees have failed to score in their last three Premier League games.
Nottingham Forest team news
Dyche remains without Willy Boly or Ibrahim Sangare, each of whom are with the Ivory Coast at the Africa Cup of Nations. Last season’s leading scorer, Chris Wood, also remains unavailable, so summer signing Igor Jesus should lead the line again.
The Brazilian has scored seven times since signing for Forest in the summer, though just one of those goals has come in the Premier League.
Nottingham Forest predicted lineup
Nottingham Forest predicted XI: Victor; Savona, Milenkovic, Murillo, Williams; Anderson, Dominguez; Hutchinson, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi; Jesus.
When will the match kick off?
The fixture will take place at the City Ground on Tuesday 30th December 2025. Kick-off is scheduled for 19:30 GMT.
How to watch Nottingham Forest vs Everton?
Nottingham Forest vs Everton will be broadcast live on Sky Sports in the UK.
