Nottingham Forest manager Oliver Glasner suggested the solution to the club's poor home form is to "just play" and stop talking about the issue. Ahead of hosting Arsenal at the City Ground, Glasner referenced his past experience at Crystal Palace, explaining that continuously discussing a problem can create a negative self-fulfilling prophecy for the players.

Forest have not secured a home Premier League victory since April 19, marking their sole victory at the City Ground in ten months. The Reds have also failed to score at home in their first four matches across all competitions this season, following a recent 1-0 defeat to Coventry City.
