Nottingham Forest's Unconventional Path to Success in Football

Nottingham Forest defies odds with low possession but high success in Premier League.

Nottingham Forest has been making waves in the Premier League this season. Despite having a low average possession rate of just 39.3% per game, they are currently sitting third in the table and in contention for a Champions League spot. The team is expert at winning the ball high up the pitch and converting it into attacking opportunities. Their defence is also strong, with Matz Sels keeping 13 clean sheets. This unconventional approach has been effective and could lead them to a European adventure next season.
