( bully168 )Nottingham Forest boss Nuno Espirito Santo is confident the power of a 12th man at home will be a factor in the club’s bid to secure Champions League football next season ahead of Saturday’s home clash with Manchester City. bully168
Forest have lost just two of their last 11 home games at the City Ground this season and are unbeaten at home since November, with six of their final 11 games remaining.
“I absolutely believe the players feel a relief playing at the City Ground,” said the Portuguese, whose side are third, a point above their rivals into Saturday’s table. “
Some of them are very keen to play at the City Ground, they enjoy it a lot and that affects the team. “
Above all there is the fans, the noise, the atmosphere, the help they give us, the extra drive they give us, the intimidating noise when the opposition have the ball. “
All that comes together and it has a massive impact on us playing at the City Ground.” ( bully168 )
