Nottingham vs Fulham Prediction & Betting Tips (2 April)

17th in the Premier League with the same number of points as the first relegated team, Nottingham Forest will have to work hard to avoid a decline. Nuno Espirito Santo's men have been idling for too long, as evidenced by the only success gleaned during the last 10 championship matches. After having suffered 3 defeats in a row Aston Villa, Liverpool and Brighton, they performed better during the last 2 days pitting them against more affordable opponents. Nottingham Forest shared the points with Luton Town 1-1 and Crystal Palace 1-1. Well stuck in the middle of the ranking, Fulham is going through a home stretch without much at stake.

12th in the Premier League, the London team is not worried about remaining and will need an incredible combination of circumstances to return to European places. The Cottagers are however progressing at an interesting pace at the moment. Indeed, they have only lost twice in the last 9 days, for 4 victories and 3 draws. After outclassing Tottenham 3-0, Fulham were held to a draw at bottom-place Sheffield United last weekend 3-3.

For Nottingham Forest, it is worth mentioning the withdrawals of OM side Nuno Tavares, potentially starting defender Boly and fairly prolific striker Awoniyi (6 goals in the PL). On the other hand, the full-backs Aina and Montiel returned to the group last weekend. Decisive against Crystal Palace, New Zealand striker Wood (10 goals in the PL) should obviously start and be supported by Gibbs-White (3 goals and 6 assists in the PL).

On the wings, Hudson-Odoi (4 goals in PL) and Elanga (5 goals and 7 assists in PL) could take their place.
