Nottingham Forest Tops Crystal Palace 1-0

Nottingham Forest secured a 1-0 victory over Crystal Palace, with Chris Wood scoring from 25 yards after a mistake by Palace goalkeeper Dean Henderson. This win marks Forest's first home victory since April and elevates them to eighth in the Premier League standings, while Palace remains winless and sits in 18th place with only three points. Both teams struggled offensively, with Palace managing just five goals in eight matches, and they hit the woodwork twice during the game. Manager Nuno Espirito Santo was absent due to a touchline ban, but Forest managed to capitalize on Palace's defensive errors.

The result underscores Forest's resurgence, contrasting sharply with Palace's persistent difficulties.
