"Nottingham Forest continue their push for a place in the Europa League last 16 when they travel to the Netherlands to face Utrecht at Stadion Galgenwaard on Thursday night. Both sides enter the fixture looking to recover from weekend setbacks, with Forest beaten at Everton and Utrecht taking a point from FC Twente. Forest arrived in November with momentum after a run of three wins in which they scored three goals in each match against Leeds United, Liverpool and Malmo."
"The Premier League schedule has since been more mixed, producing two defeats in their last three league matches. A narrow win over Wolves was followed by a 3-0 loss at Everton, a result that dropped Forest to 17th and kept them only two points above the relegation zone. Sean Dyche expressed his frustration with the performance at Goodison Park and will expect a stronger display in the Netherlands."
Nottingham Forest travel to Utrecht seeking a place in the Europa League last 16 and recovery after defeat at Everton. Both teams arrive after weekend setbacks, with Forest beaten at Everton and Utrecht taking a point from FC Twente. Forest had momentum in November with three consecutive wins, scoring three goals in each match against Leeds United, Liverpool and Malmo. Recent domestic form has been mixed, with two defeats in three league matches and only two wins from 11 away games in all competitions this season. Forest have eight points from five group fixtures in their first European campaign in 30 years and have not conceded a goal in Europe since Sean Dyche took charge. Utrecht returned to the Europa League after 14 years, are still seeking their first win with one point from five fixtures, drew at home with Porto and lost narrowly to Real Betis.
