Tottenham Hotspur host Nottingham Forest in a Premier League clash where both sides look to rebound from recent setbacks, with Spurs coming off a 4-2 loss to Wolves while Forest have dropped their last two league matches.
The history between these clubs suggests a tight affair, with under 2.5 goals scored in four of their previous six meetings and Spurs maintaining a strong home record despite their inconsistent form.
With Son Heung-min expected to return for the hosts and Forest missing defender Ola Aina, Monday's encounter at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium shapes up as a closely-contested battle that could easily end in a 1-1 stalemate.

Tottenham vs. Nottingham preview
Tottenham welcome Nottingham Forest to North London for Monday night's Premier League clash with both sides eager to bounce back from recent setbacks.
Spurs, still reeling from a 4-2 defeat at Wolves, will take comfort in their solid home form but face defensive concerns with Radu Dragusin sidelined through injury.
Forest arrive at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in somewhat of a slump, having lost consecutive matches to Aston Villa and Everton after what had been a promising run.
History points to a cagey affair, with four of the last six meetings between these sides producing fewer than three goals, including Forest's 1-0 victory in the reverse fixture on Boxing Day when Anthony Elanga proved the difference-maker.
Son Heung-min's return to fitness provides a significant boost for Ange Postecoglou's men, while Forest striker Chris Wood will look to test a Spurs defense that has now conceded in six straight matches.
Recent head-to-head encounters favor the hosts with Tottenham winning four of the last six meetings, though Forest will draw confidence from having claimed victory when these teams last met in December.
