Gary RedknappFootball AnalystРОЗБІР МАТЧУ

Morgan Gibbs-White pulled the strings in midfield as Nottingham Forest beat local rivals Notts County 2-0 in a pre-season friendly, setting up their next fixture against Blackburn Rovers. Igor Jesus opened the scoring and Arnaud Kalimuendo doubled the lead, but the contest was far less one-sided than the scoreline suggests.

The turning point came in the 27th minute when Igor Jesus slotted home unassisted to give Forest the lead against the run of play. Notts County responded well but were undone again nine minutes into the second half, when Dilane Bakwa set up Arnaud Kalimuendo to finish calmly and effectively kill the contest before the hour mark.

Statistics show a dead-even 50-50 split in possession, though Notts County edged the corner count 7-6, suggesting they were the more enterprising side without reward. Morgan Gibbs-White was the standout performer with a 7.34 rating from his midfield position, despite not scoring, as his composure on the ball set Forest apart. CheckLive's model rated Notts County the clearer side before kick-off, but the result did not confirm that prediction, as Forest capitalised on their chances to win comfortably. Forest now face Blackburn Rovers next.
