Nott Forest was one of the bad team comparing to their last season performance. They changed manager to stop bad trend. Recently, they switced to compact football, wait own pitch to find counter attacks. They lost to Everton 3-0 badly last weekend.
Tottenham with manager Thomas Frank wants gegen-press style with high space usage. They want to control the ball all the time regardless of the result. After 5 matches period without a win they got 2-0 Brentford victory. I think it was the first light for their possible momentum.
Also Nott Forest had 3 away matches in a row Wolves + Everton and Netherlands trip to Utrecht.
While, Tottenham was at own facilities, 2-0 Brentfordnn and 3-0 Slavia Prague victory in midweek for Europe + Tottenham had 2 days extra rest.
