Match preview

Nottingham Forest head into the return leg with mixed signals in their recent form. They are unbeaten over the past month, but victories have been limited — just two wins in their last five matches, alongside three draws. In the first leg, Forest had to withstand heavy pressure before securing a 1-1 result.

A key concern for the hosts is their poor home form. Since the end of January, they haven’t managed a single win at the City Ground, with their winless run stretching to seven matches, often dropping points even when in promising positions.

Porto, meanwhile, came away from the first leg with some frustration. They looked the more dangerous side but failed to turn their superiority into a victory, with missed chances and a costly defensive lapse leading to the 1-1 draw.

Still, the Portuguese side remain in strong overall shape. They are unbeaten in eight consecutive matches and continue to balance their European campaign with domestic ambitions. Even with some absences, Porto maintain a solid structure, particularly defensively, where they rarely concede more than once per game in the Europa League.

Probable lineups

Nottingham Forest: Sels, Williams, Murillo, Milenkovic, Aina, Sangaré, Anderson, Hudson-Odoi, Gibbs-White, Hutchinson, Jesus

Porto: Costa, Costa, Silva, Bednarek, Sanusi, Rosario, Fofana, Veiga, Gomes, Moffi, Sainz
