Match preview
Nottingham Forest host Arsenal in the Premier League on 17 January 2026. Nottingham Forest sit 16th on 44 points and Arsenal are 1st on 85. Nottingham Forest have won 1 of their last 5 (LLLLW), while Arsenal have won 4 of 5 (WWWWD). In their last 2 meetings, Nottingham Forest won 0, Arsenal won 2 and 0 ended level. These are probabilities from past results, not guarantees: football upsets happen every week.
How this is worked out
Each club has an Elo rating that moves after every result (bigger wins move it more, home sides get a small boost). We turn the rating gap into expected goals and use a Poisson model to get win, draw and loss chances. The prediction is locked at kick-off and never edited.
Probabilities, not promises. For analysis and entertainment only. 18+.
