Nottingham Forest have won each of their last two UEFA Europa League games and could win three consecutive major European fixtures for the first time since the 1983-84 UEFA Cup.
Fenerbahçe have won just one of 10 away European matches (including qualifiers) in England (D2 L7), winning 1-0 at Manchester United in October 1996 in the UEFA Champions League.
Nottingham Forest have kept a clean sheet in their last three home UEFA Europa League games, while they have a 65% home clean sheet ratio in major European football (17 in 26 games). Among teams to play 20+ home games, only Sampdoria (67%) and Ipswich Town (67%) have a higher percentage.
Across their major European competition history, Fenerbahçe have failed to progress from all 26 ties in any competition when losing the first leg of a knockout round clash.
No player has netted more goals than Igor Jesus in the UEFA Europa League this season (7), while his seven strikes are now the outright-most for the club during a major European campaign, overtaking Gary Birtles’ six during the 1978-79 European Cup.
