In the third gameweek of the English Premier League, Everton are set to host Nottingham Forest in a bid to secure their first point of the campaign. Both teams are set to face each other at Goodison Park on Saturday. 

After losing the first game to Chelsea in the GW1 by a whisker, Everton could not stop Aston Villa at Villa Park. Though Everton had the chance to stage the comeback in the dying embers of the game, Emiliano Martinez and Villa’s defense stood in their way. 

On the other hand, Nottingham Forest made amends for the errors that they made against Newcastle United to open an account in the English Premier League. They registered a comprehensive win against West Ham United. Dean Henderson denied the penalty for the opposition to take home all three points.
