Match Facts

  • Manchester United are winless in their last four Premier League games against Nottingham Forest (D1 L3), having won eight in a row against them before this.

  • Nottingham Forest won this exact fixture 3-2 last season – only once have they won consecutive away league games against Manchester United, doing so under Brian Clough in September 1990/April 1992.

  • Manchester United have only lost their final home league match in one of the last 18 seasons (W13 D4), going down 2-0 against Cardiff City in 2018-19.

  • Nottingham Forest have won their final away league match in each of the last two seasons, last doing so in more consecutive campaigns between 1980-81 and 1983-84 (4).

  • Manchester United’s 0-0 draw with Sunderland last time out ended their 23-game scoring streak in the Premier League. They last failed to score in consecutive games in May 2025, while they’ve not recorded consecutive clean sheets since September 2024.

  • Nottingham Forest are unbeaten in their last eight Premier League games (W4 D4), last having a longer run within the same top-flight season in their first 12 matches of 1995-96.

  • Only Man City (29, before their game vs Crystal Palace) and Arsenal (25) have opened the scoring in more different Premier League games than Man Utd this season (22). The Red Devils (W15 D7) and Nottingham Forest (W8 D2) are two of three sides (along with Sunderland) still unbeaten when scoring first this term.

  • Benjamin Sesko is Man Utd’s top Premier League goalscorer with 11 goals this season, while fellow new signings Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo have nine each. The only team to have three players score 10+ goals in their first season with the club are Arsenal in 2012-13 (Olivier Giroud, Lukas Podolski, Santi Cazorla).
