Nottingham Forest vs Fulham Prediction: Captain Morgan to deliver

Nottingham Forest picked up a well-earned point at Manchester City in their quest for survival in the Premier League last week. The Tricky Trees will look to build on that when they host Fulham at the City Ground on Sunday (14:00 GMT, Sky Sports+).

Fulham suffered a home defeat against struggling West Ham United in their most recent outing in the top flight. Read on for my Nottingham Forest vs Fulham predictions, accompanied by the latest team news and match odds.

Team News

Knee injuries have ruled out Forest duo John Victor and Nicolo Savona for the rest of the season. Willy Boly is also sidelined.

Chris Wood is expected to return from a lengthy lay-off within the next month, but Igor Jesus will continue to lead the line here. The Tricky Trees are also hoping to have Stefan Ortega and Dan Ndoye back in contention in the next couple of weeks.

Premier League Odds

Fulham winger Kevin is set to miss the rest of the campaign following ankle surgery. The Cottagers wait to see if fellow wide man Harry Wilson will be fit for the trip to the East Midlands. The Wales international has missed the last two games with an ankle issue of his own.

Nottingham Forest vs Fulham Odds

Forest are a 5/4 shot to win this clash as they seek their first victory in six league games.

Three of the last four Premier League matches at the City Ground have ended level, and the draw here is marketed at 5/2 (implied probability of 28.6%).

Fulham are 21/10 to complete the double over the Tricky Trees this season.

Both teams have scored in five of the visitors' previous seven outings in the top flight and BTTS - Yes is priced at 8/11.

Double Chance & BTTS - Nottingham Forest or Draw & Yes @ 13/10

With Tottenham Hotspur dropping like a stone, the teams around them need to take advantage to give themselves their best chance of staying in the Premier League. Six games without a win is not ideal for Forest but their draw at Manchester City shows that they are capable of turning their fortunes around.

The Reds will look forward to being back on home turf, and they should fancy themselves to get a result against Fulham, who have lost three of their previous four away trips in the top flight.

As wins have been hard to come by for Forest in recent weeks, I think covering them with a draw is the smartest play here. I have also added both teams to score as it has landed in five of Fulham's last seven outings in the Premier League.

Anytime Goalscorer - Morgan Gibbs-White @ 2/1

When Ryan Yates is not on the pitch, Morgan Gibbs-White is Forest's captain and he leads by example. He is the player his teammates turn to for inspiration and he has delivered for them in the last two games, with goals against Brighton & Hove Albion and Man City.

The attacking midfielder now has eight goals in the top flight this term, the most of any Forest player. I like the look of his 2/1 price to score for the third successive game in the Premier League.
