Nottingham Forest, Recent FormThe 3-2 home defeat to Bournemouth will not have sat easily with the Nottingham Forest squad, who would not have been pleased to squander all three points. During that encounter they recorded 52% of the possession and had 11 attempts on goal with 3 on target, while their opponents managed to hit 3 of their 8 shots on goal.
Having lost 14 goals in their past 6 matches, boss Steve Cooper will surely be casting a critical eye over his defensive line, even though his team managed to pick up some points along the way due to the 4 goals they scored. They are showing great consistency at The City Ground in finding the back of the net, having scored in 5 of their last 6 home games. Unable to deliver a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games, it's fair to say they have their troubles at the back.
It's been a bad run of form of late for them, having racked up 4 losses and only a single victory in their last 6 league matches, so they'll need to turn things around if they want to start climbing the table.
On an individual basis, Sam Surridge will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Nottingham Forest's last 6 league games.
Fulham, Recent FormThere will be a feeling of disappointment amongst the Fulham players having failed to take any points away from their recent 2-1 away defeat at the hands of Tottenham Hotspur. They achieved 48% possession in that match and had 9 strikes at goal, with 3 hitting the target, up against Tottenham Hotspur's tally of 23 efforts at goal, 10 of which were on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 9 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 9 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. With goals notched up in 5 of their past 6 matches, they are certainly showing some goal-scoring consistency of late. They are in some turmoil defensively at the moment and have been unable to record a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games.
Their recent poor run of form away from home has left them without an away win in 6 games.
In front of goal, Aleksandar Mitrović has shown an impressive run of form over the last 6 league matches, managing to find the back of the net no less than 6 times in that run of games.

When Fulham are away to The Reds in the league, they know how to find the net, with 8 goals in their last 3 meetings and an average of 2.67 per game. The Reds have struggled for goals when Fulham comes to visit The City Ground, having scored just 1 goal in their last 3 meetings.
