Best Nottingham Forest picks in FPL

We take a look at the best Nottingham Forest picks in FPL. With the help of the Fantasy Football Scout members area, we utilise its fixture ticker and underlying stats to determine which Nottingham Forest players FPL managers should be targeting.

Looking at the best Nottingham Forest picks in FPL could be really beneficial to FPL managers as we approach an exciting double Gameweek. Overviewing both their defensive and offensive options and finding out which players are worth selecting.

Fixtures

As we can see Nottingham Forest rank around mid-table on the fixture ticker from now until the end of the season. The promoted side also have a double Gameweek in the round ahead against Wolves and Leeds.

The Nottingham Forest attack

This season amongst all teams in the league Nottingham Forest rank as the second worst for attempts on gaol (265), the second worst for shots in the box (161) and the second worst for shots on target (82). They also rank amongst the worst five teams for other key attacking data points.

More recently, in the last six Gameweeks Nottingham Forest also rank amongst the worst four teams for attempts on goal (46), shots in the box (30) and big chances total. This suggests that Nottingham Forest are still struggling to convince offensively.

The best Nottingham Forest attackers

The standout option in the Nottingham Forest attack is Brennan Johnson (£5.7m). The Welshman has managed seven goals and two assists this campaign. He also takes his teams penalties which gives him an additional route to points.

Another good option from the Nottingham Forest offensive line could be Morgan Gibbs-White (£5.5m). The midfielder edges his offensive teammates for non penalty expected goal involvement in the last six Gameweeks (1.46). Some could even take a risk with striker Emmanuel Dennis (£5.6m) who scored in Nottingham Forest’s most recent match.

The Nottingham Forest defence

This season amongst all teams in the league Nottingham Forest rank the second worst for goals conceded (49), third worst for shots in the box conceded (269), the third worst for shots conceded (390) and the fifth worst for big chances conceded (65). This suggest that Nottingham Forest have struggled defensively this season.

More recently in the last six Gameweeks amongst all teams Nottingham Forest rank the worst for goals conceded (14), the worst for shots in the box conceded (66), the worst for attempts conceded (98) and the worst for big chances conceded. This indicates that things have not improved at the back for Nottingham Forest.

The best Nottingham Forest defensive options

The lack of attacking threat from Nottingham Forest’s defensive players could lead to picking goalkeeper Keylor Navas (£4.5m). The defender with the highest non penalty expected goal involvement is full back Serge Aurier (£4.4m).
