Nottingham Forest vs Leeds United Prediction and Betting Tips | November 9th 2025

Nottingham Forest lock horns with Leeds United on matchday 11 of the Premier League on Sunday. Both sides are languishing in the bottom half of the points table.

Sean Dyche's Forest drew goalless at Sturm Graz in the UEFA Europa League in midweek, days after drawing 2-2 at home to Manchester United in the Premier League last weekend.

The Tricky Trees came from behind to take the lead six minutes into the second period before Amad Diallo snatched a late equaliser. The stalemate snapped a four-game losing streak for Forest, who are in deep trouble in the relegation zone, in 19th, with six points from 10 games, winning once.

Meanwhile, Daniel Farke's Leeds are fresh off a 3-0 hiding at Brighton & Hove Albion in the league a week ago. A Danny Welbeck strike and a Diego Gomez second-half brace was enough to sink the Whites, who are 16th in the standings, with 11 points from 10 outings, winning thrice.

On that note, here's a look at the head-to-head stats and key numbers, match prediction, and betting tips for the Nottingham-Leeds Premier League clash at the City Ground:

Nottingham Forest vs Leeds United prediction

Both sides have had forgettable starts to the season, especially Nottingham, who find themselves just a place off rock-bottom Wolverhampton Wanderers, the only winless team in the top flight.

The Tricky Trees have a slender head-to-head advantage over the Whites and have dominated the fixture recently, going unbeaten in 13 home league games, winning six, since a 2-0 loss in November 1971.

It's a tough game to call, considering how both sides have fared this campaign. But considering Nottingham's continental exertions in midweek and struggles in front of goal - lowest scoring side (7) in the top flight - the Whites could eke out a rare road win.

Prediction: Nottingham Forest 0-1 Leeds United
