They have zero points from their last three matches but created 3.9 xG and surrendered 3.2 xGA. Forest scored four goals in those games, but allowed 10 goals.

The offensive hasn't materialised for Aston Villa this season. The skill is there, but with each game I downgrade this offensive further.

In a win against Southampton two weeks ago, the goal came via a fluky deflection off the crossbar.

I hoped the attack would improve after that. Even today, Villa is 11th in predicted threat, thus this attack may not improve.
