Nottingham Forest's FPL Half-Term Report: Strong Defense, Weak Home Attack
Nottingham Forest's performance in the first five Gameweeks of the Fantasy Premier League has been evaluated, highlighting their strong defensive play under new head coach Oliver Glasner, while their home scoring remains a concern.
Despite being 13th in the league, Forest has struggled offensively at home, managing only five shots on target from 48 attempts at the City Ground and failing to score in four matches, including an EFL Cup defeat. Their expected goals indicate they should have scored more, with a conversion rate of just 4.9%.
Defensively, Forest has excelled, conceding the fewest shots and big chances in the league, although they have only one clean sheet to show for it. Key players include Murillo in defense and Morgan Gibbs-White, who is pivotal in set pieces. Recent arrivals like Daniel Munoz and Liam Delap have integrated well into the squad, contributing to the team's overall performance.
