Fulham v Nottingham Forest

Fulham vs Nottingham Forest Preview

Fulham lost an entertaining and high-scoring encounter against Liverpool at Anfield on Sunday but despite that loss, there were some positives for sure for Marco Silva's side who will now return to Craven Cottage for this upcoming tussle against Nottingham Forest with both sides looking to pull themselves further away from the relegation zone, and Nottingham Forest also slipped to a defeat at home to Everton on the weekend as well.

Fulham have managed to capture just one win from their previous six matches overall and indeed, the London club have registered just two wins in their last nine games but despite putting up some decent and solid performances, the hosts have lost out in the close games but both of the two recent wins have been recorded on home soil at Craven Cottage.

It looks like home form will once again provide Fulham with the best chance of survival in this season's Premier League campaign and with three wins but three defeats, The Cottagers have claimed the bulk of their victories at home so far in this campaign.

Although Marco Silva's side have slipped to losses against Brentford, Chelsea and Manchester United, the hosts have also picked up important wins against Luton Town, Sheffield United and Wolves which gives Fulham a decent chance of a result here on Wednesday night.

Nottingham Forest's poor form away from home has been well documented but the Tricky Trees were dealt a thoroughly disappointing 1-0 defeat at home to strugglers, Everton, at the City Ground on Saturday afternoon which became only the second home defeat of the season for Steve Cooper's side.

Nevertheless, that loss to The Toffees became a third league defeat on the trot for Forest who had earlier been handed defeats by the likes of West Ham and Brighton and having managed to pick up just the one win from their last 10 matches overall in the English top flight, the visitors may find themselves up against it once more on their travels when they make their way to the nation's capital on Wednesday night.

Within this disappointing 10-match period, Nottingham Forest's only highlight came in the form of a 2-0 home win against Aston Villa whilst also being dealt no fewer than five defeats in the process, three of which were handed to Cooper's men on their travels having lost at Manchester City, Liverpool and West Ham.

The wider picture shows Nottingham Forest have still yet to convince on the road in the Premier League as the east midlands club have captured just one win from their previous 17 outings on the road and slipping to 12 defeats along the way.
