West Ham host Nottingham Forest in a huge six-pointer on Saturday afternoon at London Stadium.
The Hammers dropped into the bottom-three of the Premier League standings after a run of two draws and a loss in the previous three games.
Nevertheless, they have faced the likes of Newcastle, Chelsea, and Tottenham in the process. The match against Forest finally represents a somewhat easier fixture for David Moyes and his men, at least on paper.
When you look at Nottingham Forest’s numbers on the road in this term of the Premier League, you will see why this is a must-win game for the hosts.
The Reds have only managed to score 3 goals in 11 league games away from home (3-25 goal difference) so far in the campaign.
They are incomparably better at home than on the road this season and the previous two rounds may serve as the best proof.
Steve Cooper’s men looked dreadful in the 2-0 road loss at Fulham two weeks ago. They then bounced back by holding the likes of Manchester City to a 1-1 draw seven days ago at The City Ground.

周六下午，西汉姆联队主场迎战诺丁汉森林队。
铁锤帮在前三场比赛中两平一负，跌至英超积分榜倒数三名。
尽管如此，他们在这个过程中遇到了纽卡斯尔、切尔西和热刺这样的球队。对莫耶斯和他的球员来说，对阵森林的比赛最终是一场比较轻松的比赛，至少在纸面上是这样。
当你看看诺丁汉森林在本赛季英超客场的数据，你就会明白为什么这是东道主必须赢下的比赛。
到目前为止，红军在11场客场比赛中只进了3球(净胜球3-25)。
本赛季他们在主场的表现要比在客场的表现好得多，前两轮可能就是最好的证明。
两周前，史蒂夫·库珀的球员在客场0 - 2输给富勒姆的比赛中表现糟糕。7天前，他们在曼城球场1-1逼平了曼城。
