Nottingham Forest will host Manchester United at the City Stadium this week. Manager Sean Dyche said in a pre-match interview that the team must find a balance on both ends of the pitch and believes that the home advantage will help them get points.

Nottingham Forest have performed admirably in the Europa League this season, scoring six goals in their first three matches, but have only managed five in the Premier League. Dyche admitted that scoring ability is indeed a problem the team needs to address.

At the pre-match press conference, Dyche said, "We have a lot of experience in the Premier League, but there's no magic that can make players suddenly score a lot of goals. What we can do is build a style of play that creates more chances, and ultimately, someone has to be able to take those chances."

“Since the end of last season, the team has been out of balance, with fewer goals scored and more goals conceded. What we need to do is make our attack more threatening while maintaining a solid defense. We must create opportunities while defending well; that’s what we have to do.”

Speaking about facing a formidable opponent like Manchester United, Dyche emphasized that the team would not back down: "They've been in good form lately and seem to be gradually finding their rhythm. But we need to be prepared, understand their changes, and maintain our own style. If you look at our performance against Porto, that game was enough to beat many teams."

“We need to find our own rhythm at home. The fans here are always passionate, and their energy will be transferred to the players. Facing a stronger opponent on paper, we need to show that energy and belief on the field.”

Finally, Dyche added that Nottingham Forest is currently focused on improving their overall teamwork and goal-scoring ability, and he believes that if the team can continue their positive performance at home, they will have a chance to achieve their desired result against strong opponents.
