Nottingham Forest are riding high after a thrilling victory over West Ham, with fans playfully chanting “We’re going to win the league” as a testament to their current form. This win marks Forest's third consecutive Premier League victory, a feat they haven't achieved in over 25 years, propelling them into third place in the league standings. Despite head coach Nuno Espírito Santo being banned from the touchline and owner Evangelos Marinakis unable to attend the match, the team has shown remarkable resilience. Forest boasts the second-best defense in the league, having conceded just seven goals, and they also feature one of the league's top strikers in Chris Wood. Wood, along with Callum Hudson-Odoi and Ola Aina, played pivotal roles in securing the win against a West Ham side that was reduced to 10 men after Edson Álvarez received a red card in the first half.
