Nottingham Forest vs Fulham Prediction

The two-week break would've given Nottingham manager Steven David Cooper some time to drill his players, with a focus on increasing their attacking output. Their only win this season came at home last month and should put up a fight here.

"We go there to fight." 👊

Fulham have a superior attacking and defensive record this term than Nottingham. Considering their performances in recent trips to the City Ground, they are the favourites to take all three points.
