ShareLiam Delap will be looking to add to his Nottingham Forest goal tally when they host strugglers Coventry City on Saturday.Oliver Glasner believes Liam Delap's goal against Aston Villa last time out will give him the confidence to kick on at Nottingham Forest.Delap scored the opener in a 2-1 win at Villa Park, and also saw a goal disallowed before Igor Jesus netted the eventual winner.Four of Delap's 14 Premier League goals have come against Villa, his most against a single opponent in the competition, and his strike was just his second from outside the penalty area, after August 2024 against Fulham.Delap is now in line for another start when Forest host Coventry City on Saturday, and Glasner believes his striker is growing in confidence."He [Delap] deserved it, but it didn't surprise me because I see it in every training session," said Glasner of Delap's performance against Villa."It's such a hard strike. Even the second that was disallowed was an amazing finish."You could see after the goal his confidence really raced, and I felt it lifted him and he did really well. The goal will help him definitely."Coventry, meanwhile, are bottom of the Premier League after starting their campaign with four straight losses and no goals.They were also knocked out of the EFL Cup on Wednesday by Villa, though Frank Lampard saw some positives to take from the defeat."We're trying to find those [midfield] connections because we've had to make changes because we need players to get fit who arrive towards the back end of the window – Sidi [Cherif], Yann [Gboho] and others," said Lampard."So they need minutes to show us what they can do and to get fitter, and you're putting players together, and then I thought in that period you saw where we want to get to."PLAYERS TO WATCHNottingham Forest – Morgan Gibbs-WhiteOnly Bruno Fernandes (seven goals, 15 assists) has been involved in more Premier League goals in 2026 than Morgan Gibbs-White (13 goals, five assists), with the Englishman the leading scorer this year.Only Chris Wood in 2024 (18) and Stan Collymore in 1995 (14) have netted more in one calendar year for Forest.Coventry City – Jack RudoniOnly three Premier League players have had more shot involvements (shots and chances created) without registering a goal or assist this season than Jack Rudoni.He has had five shots and created eight chances without success so far.MATCH PREDICTION: NOTTINGHAM FOREST WINForest have won each of their last six home league games against Coventry, with this their first since a 2-0 Championship victory in April 2022.Forest have failed to score a home Premier League goal this season, but have never started a season by failing to net in their first three at home in the league, while Coventry are also goalless and last failed to score in their first three on the road in 1998-99.Glasner did not lose any of his first 10 Premier League games against promoted sides (W6 D4), but he has picked up just one point in his last four against them (D1 L3).Coventry have lost each of their four Premier League matches this season without finding the net.
