Overview
- Nottingham Forest lost 3-1 at Crystal Palace after Dan Ndoye opened the scoring early and Palace replied with goals from Daichi Kamada, Jefferson Lerma and Yeremi Pino in the second half.
- Oliver Glasner thanked both sets of supporters after the match, accepted responsibility for the defeat and said he was proud of his players' effort and the number of clear chances they created.
- Match reports and manager comments said Forest created a large number of clear chances but repeatedly failed to convert them, a shortfall that directly cost them points at Selhurst Park.
- Football Insider used full-match stats to argue that Liam Delap, Xaver Schlager and Daniel Muñoz should be dropped, and other coverage warned owner Evangelos Marinakis is growing impatient with results.
- The defeat left Forest around 14th in the table, dented team confidence ahead of the Arsenal game, and raises the prospect of short-term tactical changes or tougher decisions over the manager and playing squad.
