Nottingham Forest have been in decent form lately, picking up two wins and two draws from their last five games. They've been scoring goals and look like a side that's finding their groove. Aston Villa, on the other hand, have had a mixed run with two wins, a draw, and two losses in their last five. They've been leaking goals, which could be a problem.

Looking at recent meetings between these two, there have been plenty of goals. The last five head-to-head matches have all seen at least two goals, with three of them having three or more. This suggests the game could be open and entertaining. Given that Aston Villa have been inconsistent away from home and Nottingham Forest are in decent shape, the match looks close. I think Nottingham Forest will win this one.
