Match Time & Date:

10:00 AM
Prediction: 1-1
Fulham
After holding Brighton to a 2-2 draw, Nottingham Forest will be aiming to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they take on Fulham on Matchday 6. The Reds are undefeated in the new domestic campaign and they are surely capable of matching Fulham in front of home fans. Midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White serves a one-game ban, while all Ibrahim Sangare, Willy Boly, and Danilo miss out with injuries.
The Cottagers, on the other hand, aim to build on a 3-1 win over Newcastle United, but beating Nottingham Forest at the City Ground is easier said than done. A close encounter is on the cards in Nottingham and we believe that there is a big value in betting on draw. Striker Carlos Vinicius remains doubtful, but there are no fresh injury worries in the away team. Raul Jimenez is widely expected to lead the line for the away team.
