Nottingham Forest vs Leicester City History

Prior to the arrival of Brian Clough’s arrival at The City Ground in 1975, Nottingham Forest had not won a single major honour (bar two FA Cup successes), and he went on to take the team to the league title in 1978 and followed that up with back to back European Cup triumphs, to well and truly put his mark on the club. He also took the team to four League Cup successes over his lengthy reign in charge.

When Leicester City won the Premier League in 2015/16, it was arguably the biggest shock in football history worldwide, with Claudio Ranieri’s triumph being well and truly against the odds. The following season, the King Power Stadium side made it all the way through to the UEFA Champions League Quarter-Finals. Brendan Rodgers then took the team to their first FA Cup win in 2021 prior to being axed, while Enzo Maresca guided the team back to the top flight in 2023/24 before leaving to join Chelsea.

Nottingham Forest vs Leicester City Head-to-Head

Honours are fairly even when it comes to analysing the head-to-head record of the East Midlands derby. When it comes to games at the City Ground, Forest have, as you’d expect, the slight edge.

In 1999, in the Premiership era, a goal from Chris Bart-Williams gave the home side a narrow victory. In 2022, the two teams met in the FA Cup, and Nottingham Forest ran out 4-1 victors, with Brennan Johnson among the goals. The Welsh international would then go on to score twice in the corresponding fixture in the Premier League in 2023 to secure a 2-0 victory.

Nottingham Forest vs Leicester City Mutual Connections

A number of players have represented both clubs, but perhaps none more effectively than tough-tackling defender Wes Morgan. The Jamaican international started his career at his hometown club, Nottingham Forest and made a total of 402 appearances for the club, scoring 14 goals, before he left to join local rivals Leicester City in 2012.

He went on to play 323 games for the club, scoring 14 goals, and played a key role in that title-winning success in 2015/16 and is very much considered a hero for both clubs.
