How to watch Nottingham Forest vs FC Porto: Europa League 2025/26 live

What a turbulent season it has been for Nottingham Forest. When they began the campaign with a 3-1 victory against Brentford, no one would have imagined that just 67 days later they would sack two managers and fail to get another three points. But that’s where we find ourselves and following the departures of Nuno Espirito Santo and Ange Postecoglou, Forest have gone back to form and appointed Sean Dyche. Owner Evangelos Marinakis hopes his new man can make an instant impact against FC Porto, but don’t rule out the Portuguese side.

The Dragões sit top of the Primeira Liga and began their UEL campaign with wins over RB Salzburg and Red Star Belgrade. They now face possibly their toughest test at the City Ground, but they have the firepower to cause problems at Forest. With wonderkid Samu Aghehowa up front and creative Borja Sainz at his side, Porto will look to give Dyche a headache in their first match.
