Southampton's Ivan Juric Calls For Intensity In Upcoming Match Against Nottingham Forest

Ivan Juric emphasises the need for Southampton to maintain their intensity following a disappointing defeat to Manchester United. As they prepare for a challenging match against Nottingham Forest, he aims for improved performance and competitiveness from his team.

Ivan Juric has called on Southampton to replicate their spirited performance against Manchester United when they face Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Sunday. Despite leading 1-0 at Old Trafford, Southampton conceded three goals to Amad Diallo in the final minutes, marking their 17th league loss this season. They remain at the bottom of the table, 10 points from safety, after an 11-match winless streak and four consecutive league defeats.

Juric is still seeking his first league victory as manager and emphasises the need for his team to maintain their intensity while improving their finishing. "We don't have a lot of pressure. We have six points and are last on the table. It's part of the group. We have to be more competitive in crucial moments of the game," Juric stated following the match against United. He added that although the players are working well, they must increase their efforts to sustain their intensity.

Juric Urges Southampton to Keep Up Intensity

Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest continues to perform well, currently sitting third in the table after a 1-1 draw with Liverpool. Nuno Espirito Santo's team was on a seven-match winning streak across all competitions before this result and hasn't lost since early December. Facing Southampton presents a different challenge for Forest, but Nuno anticipates a tough match.

"I think they competed very well [against United]," Nuno remarked. "We watched the game, we analysed. That shows credit to them in the position they are being able to compete... We expect a very tough game on Sunday." He stressed the importance of preparing thoroughly by analysing Southampton's strengths and recognising their quality players.

Chris Wood has been instrumental for Nottingham Forest against Southampton, contributing four goals in his last five Premier League encounters with them (three goals and one assist). However, all these contributions occurred at St Mary's Stadium. Since last season began, Anthony Elanga and Wood have combined for nine Premier League goals, setting a record for any pair of Forest players in competition history.

For Southampton, Kamaldeen Sulemana was outstanding against Manchester United despite not scoring. He had four shots during the match—more than any other teammate—and created opportunities worth 0.4 expected goals (xG). Additionally, he led his team with five touches inside the opposition box.

Match Prediction: Nottingham Forest Win

Historically speaking, Nottingham Forest has dominated recent meetings with Southampton—losing only once out of their last 12 Premier League clashes (W8 D3). Their sole defeat came at home back in April 1997 when they lost 3-1 against Southampton.

The Saints have struggled against top-four teams recently; they've gone winless over their last 23 Premier League matches against such sides (D8 L15) since defeating Liverpool back in January 2021 by one goal margin only once this season losing all four games by an aggregate scoreline totaling twelve-to-four goals conceded versus scored respectively.
