Stats for this game
Matchup Hull City VS Nottingham Forest
Balance across the venues
Neither club owns a permanent hold over this pairing. Hull City’s 2–1 win at the City Ground on 23 October 2019 showed the value of an assertive away performance, while Nottingham Forest replied 2–0 at the KCOM Stadium on 26 December 2019. Forest also won 2–1 at home on 18 December 2021, but Hull’s ground remained capable of producing resistance.
Close margins keep it open
The 1–1 draw at the MKM Stadium on 7 May 2022 captures the matchup’s measured character: neither side created a decisive gap, and the venue could not settle the balance. The broader record stays competitive because both sides have combined home wins with away successes, while draws have repeatedly kept the balance unsettled. A future meeting would be interesting for the same reason. Will Hull City use home pressure to tilt the contest, or can Nottingham Forest impose the sharper transitions that have travelled well?
