Nottingham Forest vs Newcastle United Tickets

Much like Newcastle United, Nottingham Forest’s major successes come some way back in the distant past, but nonetheless, these two giants of the English game are still huge icons in the Premier League era, and that is one of the reasons why accessing tickets for this game is no straightforward task.

Buying tickets via the official website of either club is something of a lottery. Even if you are a paid-up member, you will only be able to access a small selection of tickets, those which are not already held by season ticket holders, and then the general sale window is usually incredibly short, and within seconds the remaining tickets are sold.

Additionally, Frank Clark played 464 times for Newcastle United before moving to Forest in 1975, where he played a key role in helping Brian Clough’s side to domestic and European glory. He then went on to manage Forest between May 1993 and December 1996.

Nottingham Forest vs Newcastle United Head to Head

When Nottingham Forest hosted the Magpies in March 2023, it was the first top-tier encounter at the City Ground since 1999, but the two had met in lower league clashes in that period.

Eddie Howe’s side triumphed in that March 2023 encounter, even though they initially went behind to a goal from Emmanuel Dennis. Swedish forward Alexander Isak scored twice, including a late penalty to give Newcastle United all three points.

The last league meeting prior to this came in the 2016/17 season, at the end of which Newcastle United secured promotion back to the Premier League. In December 2016, however, they were unable to avoid defeat at the City Ground in what was a very eventual fixture.

Matt Ritchie scored for the visitors just before the break; this was despite Newcastle United being down to ten men after Jonjo Shelvey's sending-off. Indeed Paul Dummett was also then ordered off, which left Forest facing nine men in the second half.

Former Arsenal man Nicklas Bendtner scored on 52 minutes, and it took a Jamaal Lascelles own goal with four minutes left to play to give Forest the win.

In February 1991, the two teams met in the FA Cup Fourth Round, and Stuart Pearce and Nigel Clough helped Forest to return from St James’ Park with a 2-2 draw to force a replay, which they duly won 3-0, with Clough again among the scorers, along with Steve Hodge and Garry Parker. Brian Clough’s side went on to reach the FA Cup Final, only to then lose to Tottenham in extra time at Wembley Stadium in heartbreaking fashion.
