- Competition: England - Premier League
- Date: Monday, 21st, April 2025
- Kickoff: 20:00 UK / 21.00 CEST
- Venue: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium (London)
Nottingham Forest will head to North London on Monday night looking to tighten their grip on a Champions League spot as they take on a struggling Tottenham side in matchweek 33.
Tottenham’s domestic struggles were momentarily pushed aside after a narrow 1-0 victory over Eintracht Frankfurt in Germany sealed a 2-1 aggregate win and propelled them into the semifinals of UEFA’s second-tier competition where they will face surprise package Bodo/Glimt.
Arsenal’s dismantling of Real Madrid across two legs in the Champions League quarter-finals has unlocked another Champions League slot, boosting Forest’s hopes of securing a top-five finish, though they must tread carefully as they hold only a slender three-point cushion over Chelsea in sixth.
Tottenham Hotspur vs Nottingham Forest Betting Tips : X2 (DOUBLE CHANCE)
Spurs’ domestic campaign has been one to forget as they remain anchored in the lower half of the table with a poor haul of 37 points from 32 league outings, but with no real threat of relegation looming, it's clear they'll throw everything into the UEFA Europa League in search of silverware. After the new year kicked off, Tottenham have only turned four of their 13 matches into wins while being on the receiving end of losses in eight of those, which clearly justifies their position in the table at this stage. With no competitive targets left as the season winds down and carrying signs of fatigue from Thursday’s European clash, manager Ange Postecoglou might opt to rotate his squad and preserve some of his key contributors for more decisive Europa League fixtures. If Spurs opt for a heavily rotated lineup combined with their worrying run of three defeats in their last four outings, Forest could be well-positioned to capitalize as they look to snap their own two-game losing streak and at least cling to that fourth spot. Given that Forest took the spoils with a 1-0 victory in the earlier meeting, we can easily envision them pulling off another statement result against a Spurs team whose thoughts may already be leaning toward their looming European showdown with Bodo/Glimt.

The centre-back duo of Kevin Danso and Radu Dragusin, along with Korean star Heung-min Son, will all miss Monday’s clash with Forest due to injury setbacks.
Following Thursday’s intense European fixture, manager Ange Postecoglou might be tempted to give some of his star names a break through strategic rotations.

While the rest of the squad looks set, doubts remain over Ola Aina and Taiwo Awoniyi, who are scheduled for additional checks before the Tottenham game due to recent niggles.
Head coach Nuno Espirito Santo, undeterred by the back-to-back losses his team faced last week, plans to field his standard starting eleven for the Monday fixture.
