Home manager Steve Cooper makes four changes from his team's last Premier League match, a 1-1 draw at Bournemouth, as new signing Navas starts between the ...
The Leeds man brings it down before lashing at goal, but Navas dives to his right to punch the ball away from danger and preserve his team's lead. Forest take a 1-0 lead into the break, but Leeds will be wondering how they are not at least level in this match. Recent results have improved, and Forest sit 14th in the table, but there remains only three points between themselves and the bottom three.
Double Gameweek 22 of Fantasy Premier League (FPL) continues at 14:00 GMT on Sunday, as Nottingham Forest host Leeds United at The City Ground.
As for the visitors, Jesse Marsch makes three alterations from Gameweek 21, but new loan signing Weston McKennie has to settle for a place on the bench. Steve Cooper makes four changes from the side that drew 1-1 at Bournemouth last time out, with Keylor Navas coming in for his debut. This is, of course, the first of Leeds’ two matches, with a trip to Old Trafford to follow on Wednesday.
Leeds will try to snap their six-game winless skid when they visit fellow relegation battlers Nottingham Forest at the City Ground on Sunday.
Incredible play by Amadou Onana to surge down the left and he crosses for Dominic Calvert-Lewin who is sliding in and two yards out. A high cross to the back post finds Bukayo Saka and he brilliantly volleys the ball towards the bottom corner but Conor Coady gets back on the line to clear. 11, while Everton have a huge Merseyside derby at Liverpool on Monday, Feb. Arsenal host Brentford on Saturday, Feb. Chelsea has some work to do while surprising Fulham, Brentford and Brighton are hanging around on the periphery with fine campaigns. A season ago, Manchester City conceded just 26 goals in 38 games (0.68 per game). Arsenal (50 points) were handed just their second defeat of the season on Saturday, beaten 1-0 away to Everton as Sean Dyche made his debut as Toffees manager. After winning just one of their first 12 games back in the Premier League for the first time since 1999, Steve Cooper’s side has gelled and picked up wins over Liverpool, Crystal Palace, Southampton and Leicester since late October. Brennan Johnson puts Nottingham Forest 1-0 up against Leeds United. When Leeds kick off on Sunday, the only thing separating them from the relegation zone will be five goals in the goal difference column. Leeds will feel more than a little aggrieved with that. After creeping close to mid-table with back-to-back wins over Liverpool and Bournemouth before the World Cup break, Leeds (18 points – 16th place) have taken just three of a possible 18 points.
Brennan Johnson's sweet first-half strike nabbed three points for Forest in a relegation six-pointer that Leeds largely dominated.
Williams tries to clear but only heads it into the path of Gnonto, who has space to advance on goal after the two Forest defenders went for the same ball. Leeds have a free kick that is lofted into the danger area from the Forest right. Surridge is on the move down the hosts’ left wing, and the Leeds goalie Meslier comes rushing out of goal to clear, but the Forest man was offside anyway. That looked completely “village” from Bamford but to be fair the ball took a little nick off a Forest leg on its way to him, so it was a difficult one to control. 51 min: Boly goes in the book for another cynical foul, a trip on Adams of Leeds. 53 min: Williams sprints into space down the middle and almost through on goal for Forest. The ball drops to Summerville on the edge of the box. 65 min: Now Gnonto loses the ball and Struijk soon fouls Johnson, who is haring through into space on the Forest right around halfway. But can Leeds snatch the goal, and the point, they they so clearly deserve? 77 min: Surridge threatens again on the left as Forest look to hit on the break. 84 min: Forest continue to keep their shape and keep Leeds at bay. And we got the three points in the end.
Brennan Johnson scores the only goal as Nottingham Forest beat Leeds to move six points clear of the Premier League relegation places.

A final chance in a half that hadn’t seen many, fell to Leeds. With around 25 minutes remaining there was no change on the scoreline, but further changes came from the bench. Along with the new-signing, we saw a return from injury for Crysencio Summerville as he replaced Sinisterra. From an in swinging free-kick, the ball fell to Johnson on the edge and he struck a powerful first time volley into the bottom corner. Again, looking for an equaliser in the match, it was Gnonto causing problems as he created another good opening. The winger burst into the box and carved out an opening, only to see his left-footed strike denied by debutant Keylor Navas in the Forest goal.

Rating: 7.5/10 Sam Surridge (for Wood, 74mins): So close to getting on the scoresheet. Cool on the ball when the hosts were on the back foot. [Premier League](https://www.nottinghampost.com/all-about/barclays-premier-league) goal of the season. Got a huge roar from the crowd when he went straight in with a challenge. In great form at the moment. Willy Boly: A colossus at the back, with the Reds under the cosh for much of the game. Had some promising moments after the break, when he moved to the left wing. [City Ground](https://www.nottinghampost.com/all-about/city-ground). A one-man road-block in the first 45 minutes, when he single-handedly kept his team in front. Gibbs-White and Neco Williams had opportunities to increase Forest’s lead after the interval, while substitute Sam Surridge wasn’t far away as the clock ticked towards the final 10 minutes. Gibbs-White had a shot blocked soon after, but the hosts spent much of the first half on the back foot.
All of the marks out of 10 for Jesse Marsch's Leeds United side at the City Ground after their Premier League clash with Nottingham Forest on Sunday ...
Kept making decent runs off the ball down the flank on the overlap. Ran into a lot of traffic with a deep defensive line. Every time the ball came to him he gave it a panicked, aimless hoof up the field. Denied by an excellent Keylor Navas save with his best effort. Needs to work on his composure. Consistently looked a yard off the pace when dealing with the forward. Nottingham Forest rarely got down his side of the field. Got forward well and consistently offered a dangerous option for the team down the right flank. Took a yellow when giving away the foul which generated the free-kick before the opening goal. 6 Distribution was solid and he came for the right balls, apart from one in the first half which Chris Wood beat him to and he needed his teammates to bail him out of an open-goal situation. Nothing he could really do about the well-struck opener.
The Whites' young striker was the only bright spark in a disappointing defeat to a fellow Premier League struggler.
It was a good tactical adjustment by Cooper and in the end I suppose they'll be happy with the result." The Italian international was a real threat in the first-half against Nottingham Forest at the City Ground, but was unable to find an equaliser after Brennan Johnson gave the hosts the lead. He [Aurier] was always set whether Gnonto tried to dribble with it or run in behind, he did it well. The young striker has been fast tracked into the first-team set-up and has been a surprise package this season after arriving from FC Zurich in the summer. Onouha added: "Yeah, for sure, that's why Serge Aurier came on.

This is the way Marsch wants Leeds to play but it is not providing the results required. “I take full responsibility, I have to find a way of turning good performances more into winning because that’s exactly where we are and have been for a little while. Everton and Wolves have seen the positive impact of managerial change and Marsch will be left wondering how sustainable his position is, with chants for him to leave coming from the away end, a viewpoint Marsch “understands”. Luis Sinisterra could have opened the scoring within three minutes but Navas showed why he has been signed on loan by coming out quickly to block a shot from close range." "In general we are struggling to get the results we feel like we deserve. At 36 years and 52 days, he was the oldest goalkeeper to make a Premier League debut since Andy Goram for Manchester United in 2001. With Leeds above the relegation zone on goal difference alone after winning only two of their last 17 in the league, how long can that position hold?" Marsch was backed in the transfer window and with pressure on him building, he must hope his new recruits - one of whom, Weston McKennie, made his debut off the bench - can help change his side's fortunes quickly." They dominated at Nottingham Forest but succumbed to Brennan Johnson’s first-half strike and an inspired Keylor Navas debut. "It's hard for me to accept and it's frustrating. The Italian winger then cut the ball back for Bamford, who fluffed the shot; Ayling kept it alive but put his shot too close to the goalkeeper. Even taking into account the break for the World Cup, it is a statistic that makes for grim reading for their supporters.

The Whites were bright and showed signs of attacking intent at the City Ground, mainly through youngster [Wilfried Gnonto.](https://www.leeds-live.co.uk/sport/leeds-united/wilfried-gnonto-roberto-mancini-leeds-26041903) I think ultimately, those runs may have made a difference but it just wasn't going to be their day today." They didn't know what to do and gave it away time after time." I would say most number nines that we'd see out there, I'd expect them to be able to- not dominate in a two vs one - but understand the role that is there. However, the youngster was unable to find a way past Keylor Navas in the Forest goal, with Steve Cooper bringing on Serge Aurier to stifle the Italian's threat in the second-half. "Who's going to stand up and try and create something?
