The average ball possession of Nottingham Forest in this league is 39.29%, which means that the team has a rather wait-and-see attitude and does not often take over the ball of the game. Therefore, for the match against Crystal Palace they should do something to reverse the trend and try to impose their game on their opponents if they want the win.

The adaptation of James Ward-Prowse with the new jersey has not been the best. He had another disappointing performance in Nottingham Forest last game of the season, against Chelsea. In the clash, the midfielder failed to be effective and did little for the team. Despite the good expectations for the player, his performance is starting to worry.

Ismaïla Sarr's life is not being easy in this beginning of his trajectory for his new club.
