Rayan Aït-Nouri

Analysis: Ait-Nouri was back in the starting left-back role on Wednesday after a bench spot in three straight games, serving for Nico O'Reilly after he shifted to midfield for the injured Rodri (groin). That said, if Rodri remains out, O'Reilly should remain in this role, leaving more time for Ait-Nouri. In the start, he recorded two shots and three crosses, with his elusive attacking skill making up for what he lacks in defense at times.

Assist again

Ait-Nouri assisted once to go with one cross (one accurate) and one corner in Wednesday's 2-2 draw versus Nottingham Forest.

Analysis: Ait-Nouri looks to be sealing a decent role at left-back after Nico O'Reilly's move to the midfield, his eighth straight start in that role. He would add to it with a second straight game with an assist, his only two goal contributions in 12 appearances this season. He also added one tackle, an interception and a clearance in the defense, not their best day in the defense as a team.
