Nottingham Forest vs Sunderland History

Nottingham Forest 1-2 Sunderland (Division One - November 27, 1998)

Details: This match was significant during Sunderland's utterly dominant 1998-99 Division One (now Championship) season under Peter Reid. Forest, who had been relegated from the Premier League the previous season and were aiming for an immediate return, were beaten on their own patch. Sunderland, powered by the prolific strike partnership of Kevin Phillips and Niall Quinn, were relentless that season, amassing a then-record 105 points. This victory at a promotion rival's ground was a clear statement of their intent and quality, showcasing the formidable team Reid had built.

Nottingham Forest 1-0 Sunderland (Championship - April 7, 2018)

Details: This game stands out for its significance in Sunderland's dramatic and sorry decline. The Black Cats, already relegated from the Premier League the previous season, were in freefall and staring at back-to-back relegations into League One. Ben Osborn scored the only goal for Aitor Karanka's Forest side. The result pushed Sunderland further towards the trapdoor and was another nail in the coffin of a miserable season for their fans, memorable for all the wrong reasons from a Sunderland perspective and an important three points for Forest as they consolidated in the Championship.

Nottingham Forest 4-1 Sunderland (Division One - October 29, 1988)

Details: On October 29, 1988, Brian Clough's Nottingham Forest delivered a dominant Division One performance at the City Ground, dispatching Sunderland 4-1. The Tricky Trees, a strong top-flight side, showcased their attacking power against a Sunderland team ultimately relegated that season, with Nigel Clough netting a brace, complemented by goals from Garry Parker and Franz Carr, while Marco Gabbiadini scored Sunderland's consolation.
