Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham Hotspur LIVE: Premier League result, final score and reaction
Follow all the action from The City Ground
Follow live coverage as Nottingham Forest face Tottenham Hotspur today in the Premier League. Another top-flight season will be covered in full right here with The Independent, as reigning champions Manchester City look to make it an unprecedented five titles in a row come the end of 2024/25.
The likes of Arsenal and Liverpool will be chasing Pep Guardiola's side, but just as fascinating will be the race for Champions League places, with more teams than ever before having designs on top-four finishes. Chelsea remain big-spending, Manchester United's latest rebuild continues and both Tottenham and Newcastle will expect improvements this year - yet it was Aston Villa who snared fourth last term.
Meanwhile, it's Southampton, Leicester City and Ipswich Town who made it back to the elite after promotion last year and each will have hope they can make it more than a one-year stay. Follow the latest live action from the Premier League below:

Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham Hotspur
Tottenham were left in the bottom half of the Premier League table on Christmas Day following a 6-3 defeat by Liverpool last time out. The defensive flaws in Ange Postecoglou’s side were brutally exposed and the Spurs manager needs his team to get back to winning ways. Currently eight points off a Champions League spot, Spurs cannot allow that gap to widen if they are to qualify for Europe’s most prestigious cup competition next season, making victory against Forest paramount. Spurs have enjoyed their past two visits to the City Ground in the Premier League, winning 2-0 on each occasion.
Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham Hotspur
Nottingham Forest’s impressive season continued after a 2-0 victory over Brentford last time out left them sitting in fourth place in the Premier League table on Christmas Day. Nuno Espirito Santo’s side could further strengthen their position of qualifying for European football next season if they can win their fourth Premier League match in a row for the first time since 1995. In continuing their strong form at the City Ground, Nuno Espirito Santo could also leave his former employers well adrift of the Champions League places following his four-month stint in charge of the north London club back in 2021.
