Nottingham Forest are looking to continue their excellent start to the season at home to Fulham on Saturday.

Nuno Espirito Santo’s side remains unbeaten after last weekend’s 2-2 draw at Brighton and Hove Albion and a win at the City Ground this weekend could see the Reds end the weekend inside the top four of the Premier League.

Fulham have also started the season well and beat Newcastle United 3-1 at Craven Cottage last weekend. They sit one place below Forest in the table and will leapfrog them if they win.

Nottingham Forest vs Fulham predictions

Both sides have had strong starts to the season after outsiders tipped both to be involved in a relegation battle.

Forest showed incredible resilience to hold on to a point in the south coast last week and their home form has been brilliant this season.

It feels like anyone who comes to the City Ground is unlikely to come away with anything and it feels as if that trend will continue on Saturday.
