Comments:

League position: 10th This was newly-promoted Nottingham Forest’s first Premier League game at the City Ground since the visit of Leicester City on 16 May 1999 when Chris Bart-Williams scored the only goal. This was Forest's 200th game in the Premier League (won 61, lost 80) and their 100th home game in the division (won 36, lost 32). This was Forest's first win in their last four league games (lost two). Brennan Johnson scored in the 53rd minute but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to an offside decision.

Comments:

League position: 19th West Ham United had now lost eight of their last 13 games in all competitions (won two). The Hammers had now lost three of their last 15 games in the Premier League against newly-promoted teams (won ten). Declan Rice's 65th minute penalty was saved. He had now failed to convert two of the three penalties he had taken in the Premier League. Saïd Benrahma scored in the 41st minute but the goal was disallowed after a VAR review due to a foul. West Ham United named eight of a possible nine substitutes.
