Manchester United come into this in strong form, unbeaten in their last four league matches and full of confidence after impressive wins over Liverpool, Brentford, and Chelsea. Defensively they also look much more stable recently.

Recent head-to-head meetings have been tight, and Nottingham have caused United problems before. Still, current form and overall quality clearly favor the home side here.
