Nottingham forest lost 2 times recently so there was a change in the standings and Newcastle took advantage of this moment to take over, even i think nottingham forest is no longer safe in the champions league zone because there are 2 more teams approaching the top 5 like Chelsea and Aston Villa. As we know Premier League has 5 tickets next season but there is a possibility they will get 1 more ticket if Arsenal can win the Champions League which means that 1 ticket is obtained by the winner as a bonus.
Just to be in the Champions League zone, it seems safe for Nottingham Forest for the rest of this season because Nottingham Forest will definitely try to improve their position and try not to lose again for the rest of this season. In addition, the additional slot given as a bonus for the Premier League can also help the teams that are very close to the top five so Nottingham Forest doesn't need to worry about it. Moreover, if in the Europa League this season there is a team from England that is able to become champions there, of course there will be one more team from England that enters the Champions League next season to enliven the prestigious competition.
