Sean Dyche's Nottm Forest have taken seven points from nine from their last three Premier League games.

Nottm Forest will aim to move level on points with Crystal Palace this weekend when the two teams meet at the City Ground in the Premier League.

The Tricky Trees are hovering above the relegation zone on 25 points in 17th and they have a five-point cushion over the bottom three.

Palace have plummeted down the table in recent weeks and they are only three points and two places above Sean Dyche's side ahead of Gameweek 24.

Team news

Forest goalkeeper John Victor remains sidelined with a knee injury and he is joined in the treatment room by Chris Wood, who is also nursing a knee problem.

Nicolo Savona has also suffered a knee injury in the last few weeks, but his problem is considered to be a short-term issue.

Palace pair Eddie Nketiah and Daichi Kamada are sidelined at present due to muscle injuries.

Team-mate Cheick Doucoure is close to returning from a knee injury, but Sunday's game comes too soon for him.

Eagles right-back Nathaniel Clyne will need to pass a fitness test after recently recovering from a groin injury, while Adam Wharton is suspended.

The stats

The last two games between these two teams have finished 1-1, while five of the last nine matches have finished one apiece.

Seven of the last nine games between the pair have finished level.

Forest have won their last two matches in all competitions and they have only lost three of their previous 10 games.

Palace are without a win in 11 games in all competitions, with their last league success coming in December away at Fulham.

Forest are unbeaten in their last four games against Palace at the City Ground.

Prediction

Palace's season has unravelled in recent weeks and, after the departure of defender Marc Guehi and the imminent exit of Oliver Glasner, things look like they could go from bad to worse.

The Eagles have lost four of their last five away matches, but they have at least shown some fighting spirit.

Glasner's team have scored in three consecutive games and they face a Forest outfit who have yet to prove they have turned a corner at the back, despite back-to-back clean sheets.

Forest have conceded 17 times at home this season, but Sunday's game looks like a great opportunity for them to boost their hopes of survival.

Dyche's side face a Palace team that looks like a shadow of their former selves and their recent three-match unbeaten run suggests they have found some momentum to get the job done.
