Nottingham Forest chase Europa League place

Football

Nottingham Forest aim to secure European qualification as the Premier League season enters its final stages.

Nottingham Forest face Aston Villa as both clubs pursue qualification for European competition next season. Nuno Espirito Santo's side has experienced a recent improvement in form, moving them into contention for a Europa League spot. Per Sky Sports, the club currently sits in the top half of the Premier League table following a sequence of positive results in April.

Midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White remains a central figure for the squad. According to The Guardian, the former England under-21 international has contributed 10 assists during the current campaign. His creative output has been vital to the team's offensive transition and recent goal-scoring record.

Aston Villa provide the opposition at Villa Park. Unai Emery's team is also competing for a high finish to ensure continental football returns to the West Midlands. According to the Premier League, the reverse fixture at the City Ground earlier this season ended in a 2-0 victory for Nottingham Forest. Both clubs require three points to maintain their respective positions in a congested race for the top six.
