Match preview

Nottingham Forest host Sunderland in the Premier League on 27 September 2025. Nottingham Forest sit 16th on 44 points and Sunderland are 7th on 54. Nottingham Forest have won 0 of their last 5 (DLLLD), while Sunderland have won 1 of 5 (LDWDD). In their last 1 meetings, Nottingham Forest won 1, Sunderland won 0 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+.
