Nottingham Forest’s odds of being relegated from the Premier League have drifted to 11/4 after their 1-0 win over Leeds United.
It was Brennan Johnson‘s first half strike that proved to be the decisive moment in the game, and it was a sensational goal to send the Forest faithful into oblivion.

Debutant Keylor Navas showed just how good he was in the first half with some important saves to deny the likes of Wilfried Gnonto, Luke Ayling and Luis Sinisterra.
The three-time Champions League winner impressed massively on his first appearance for the East Midlands outfit, and even at 36, Navas fits perfectly in this Steve Clark team and could be key to Forest’s survival with number one Dean Henderson ruled out due to injury.
Leeds’ threat was not as intense in the second half, and the Reds held on for a third victory in five league games, moving them up to 13th in the table.
Johnson’s strike also summed his life in the Premier League up right now, and the 21-year-old is really starting to settle in the top tier.
