Ahead of Nottingham Forest's trip to Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League on Monday evening, take a look back at four famous wins in North London from down the years.
Spurs 0-1 Forest | 01/03/1997
The Reds travelled to White Hart Lane in 1997 sitting in the Premier League’s bottom three and without a win in three matches.
Spurs were comfortable in mid-table whilst also failing to claim three points in any of their three prior outings.
Forest would depart North London with maximum points thanks to Dean Saunders’ fifth goal for the club on 18 minutes, a result that lifted the Reds out of the bottom three for the weekend at least.
Ultimately, the Reds would be relegated at the end of the season, before returning to the Premier League at the first time of asking in 1997/98.
Spurs 0-1 Forest | 14/10/1995
Going into the clash between Spurs and the Reds in 1995, the home side had won four on the bounce, whilst Forest were unbeaten in six.
The makings were there for a classic, but whilst the scoreline remained relatively low, Forest would claim maximum points in North London.
After collecting the ball from Kevin Campbell, Steve Stone galloped into the Tottenham box, before floating the ball over Ian Walker to put Forest ahead and net the game's only goal.
The Reds would see out the remaining 25 minutes to claim the points at White Hart Lane and rise to fifth in the Premier League table.
Spurs 1-4 Forest | 24/09/1994
In 1994, the Reds faced Spurs in fine form, with four wins from six games, whereas the home side had three wins from six.
Steve Stone’s clever first-time touch and finish from Stan Collymore’s crossfield pass put Forest ahead with nine minutes before Ilie Dumitrescu brought the home side level just after the half hour mark.
Forest old boy Teddy Sheringham saw his penalty saved by Mark Crossley to keep the sides level going into half time, before Frank Clark’s Reds ran riot in the second period.
Bryan Roy stooped to head in Stone’s low cross on 52 minutes before the duo repeated the trick with 20 minutes remaining to give Forest some breathing space.
The moment of the match however came on 79 minutes when Lars Bohinen’s beautiful chip caught Ian Walker off his line in the Spurs goal to round off the scoring and keep Forest in the Premier League’s top three.
Spurs 1-2 Forest | 26/12/1991
Forest faced Spurs at White Hart Lane, without a win in their previous two fixtures, on Boxing Day 1991.
Nigel Clough opened the scoring for the Reds on 11 minutes, flicking Roy Keane’s low cross into the net at the near post.
Paul Stewart brought the home side level on the hour mark, finishing low into the bottom right-hand corner after collecting the ball from Paul Walsh’s flick on.
Clough was dismissed with eight minutes remaining in North London, giving Forest an uphill task in the final moments, but the Reds would claim the points in dramatic fashion in the final moments of the match.
Stuart Pearce stood over a free-kick in the 90th minute before taking a long run-up and firing the ball beyond Erik Thorstvedt in the Spurs goal to give Forest the points at White Hart Lane.
