The match at Villa Park saw Aston Villa securing a narrow 2-1 victory over Nottingham Forest, thanks to their efficient attacking play in the first half. Villa's early goals, scored by Morgan Rogers and Donyell Malen, both assisted by precise through balls from Youri Tielemans and Ian Maatsen respectively, set the tone. These early strikes showcased Villa's ability to capitalize on swift attacking transitions, an aspect that Forest struggled to contain.

Defensively, Aston Villa maintained a disciplined structure, effectively limiting Nottingham Forest to just three shots on target compared to Villa's eight. Despite Forest managing to pull one back through Jota Silva in the second half, assisted by Neco Williams, their overall attacking opportunities were stifled. Nottingham's reliance on long-range efforts was evident in their 16 shots off target, highlighting their inefficiency in breaking down the Villa defense.

Set-piece execution did not favor either side, with both teams executing four corner kicks without converting them into goals. Nottingham's inability to exploit these scenarios was compounded by frequent offside calls, which happened five times. In contrast, Villa's forward play remained cohesive and disciplined, with no offsides throughout the match, facilitating fluid and uninterrupted attacking sequences.

The high number of fouls committed by Nottingham (15), alongside the receipt of two yellow cards, underlined their aggressive but ultimately ineffective approach to disrupting Villa's play. Conversely, Villa, while also receiving two yellow cards, committed fewer fouls, emphasizing their strategic composure in maintaining control. These dynamics underscored Aston Villa's superior teamwork and coordination, ultimately securing them a well-earned victory.
