Seeking to snap a five-game losing streak, Nottingham Forest hopes to cut the gap with the rampant Tottenham Hotspur (Watch live at 3pm ET on USA Network and stream online on NBCSports.com).
Although Forest’s four-game losing streak was ended last week with a draw against Wolves, the team has only won once since September 2—a thrilling victory over Aston Villa on November 5—and manager Steve Cooper is under pressure to lead Forest into the top half while remaining in or near the bottom three.
