OPPOSING MANAGER - Oliver Glasner

After over 500 professional appearances as a player, Glasner made his name in coaching at German side Wolfsburg, who he guided to the Champions League by finishing fourth in the 2020/21 Bundesliga season.

He moved on to Eintracht Frankfurt and had similar success there, winning the 2021/22 Europa League and again, securing Champions League football for his club.

Palace came calling in February 2024 and he proved himself at the highest level, securing back-to-back record point totals for the Eagles and also winning the FA Cup and Community Shield.

This secured a first taste of European football for the South London side, before he joined Forest in the summer.

It’s been a tough start to life at the City Ground with only one league win in his opening nine matches in charge.

PREVIOUS MEETING

Our last trip to the City Ground came in December 2025 where we secured a late 2-1 win thanks to Rayan Cherki.

After neither side had a shot on target in the first half, Tijjani Reijnders fired us ahead three minutes after the break when he calmly finished a well-crafted move.

But we looked like we would be denied a perfect December when Omari Hutchinson equalised from close range six minutes later.

With time ticking down, Cherki, who also provided the assist for Reijnders’ opener, drilled a low volley through a crowded penalty area and into the net.
