In their 22 Premier League games this season, Nottingham Forest have gone 1-0 up in 18 of them. Across the competition's history, only Manchester City in 2011-12 and 2018-19 have ever done so more in their opening 22 matches of a campaign (both 19).

Clinical in the first half, let Southampton back into it in the second, but held out defensively once again. Players like Bednarek seem to always get away with it, while players who have been good seem to always get subbed off.
