When die-hard Manchester United fans began to question whether Amorim was the right man for the job, the Red Devils responded on the pitch, climbing to sixth place in the Premier League after three consecutive victories in impressive fashion: a 2-0 win against Sunderland, a late goal from Maguire to secure a win against Liverpool at Anfield, and a 4-2 victory over Brighton in Matchday 9 thanks to outstanding performances from Mbeumo and Cunha.
Now, Manchester United travel to the City Ground, where they lost to Nottingham Forest in April during the previous Premier League season. They are aware of their current form and the low point in the Tricky Trees' current situation; they suffered another Premier League defeat, leaving them with 5 points in the relegation zone.
Sean Dyche was appointed manager of Nottingham Forest after the board dismissed Postecoglou. Dyche has a tough task ahead; Nottingham Forest's poor run has extended to six defeats in their last seven Premier League matches, equaling the two worst runs the Tricky Trees have had in the top or second division this millennium.

Our Nottingham Forest vs Manchester United Prediction
Last season, the City Ground was one of the toughest grounds for visiting Premier League teams, but that doesn't seem to be the case this season. On October 2nd, Chelsea comfortably beat the Tricky Trees 3-0 at home; even Danish side Midtjylland, in the Europa League, also claimed an unlikely victory at Forest's ground.
In the recent victory against Brighton, Manchester United's midfield created significant attacking danger; both Fernandes, who had a decisive game, and Casemiro, who scored a goal, will start on Saturday, and Maguire is also expected to return after being absent in United's last game.
Our prediction for Manchester United vs Nottingham Forest is: Manchester United to win.
