Nottingham Forest have a fight on their hands as the Premier League season enters its crucial final few weeks.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side remain just one point above the drop zone, having suffered a controversial 2-0 defeat at Everton last weekend. Relegation rivals the Toffees then increased their buffer over the bottom three by triumphing over Liverpool in midweek.

It is still tight at the bottom, but the Reds know they need to turn their form around to boost their hopes of staying up. Below, we take a look at how the run-ins compare for Forest and their rivals for survival.
