Nottingham Forest live vs Leeds United | OneFootball

Nottingham Forest begin the 2026/27 Premier League season today, launching a new era under head coach Oliver Glasner.

According to Nottingham Post, Leeds United visit the City Ground for a three pm kick-off as Glasner makes his competitive home bow.

After last season's relegation battle and the churn of four managers, Forest are seeking stability and success under Glasner. They sampled continental competition with a run to the Europa League semi-finals and want to return to Europe.

The hosts will hope to make a winning start, while summer arrivals Xaver Schlager and Ousmane Diomande could feature.

Glasner will be keen to begin positively, though he knows it will take time to shape the side to his liking.

Not since 1997, with Dave Bassett in charge, has a new Forest boss won his first Premier League fixture. Six in a row have not ended that run.

There is optimism about the months ahead. Steady progress could be key, and there may be a chance to exploit rivals in flux or tied up with Europe.
