Nottingham Forest and Fulham face each other at the City Ground in what is expected to be an exciting Premier League game. The relegation-threatened Reds aim to put an end to their five-game winless run and they are likely to fight tooth and nail against the capital club. Pacey forward Anthony Elanga is pushing for a start, while defender Willy Boly remains doubtful. Tuesday’s clash comes too early for Nuno Tavares.
The Cottagers, on the other hand, head into the season finale with the lack of motivation as they are stuck in the middle of the table. As Nottingham Forest want this victory more than Fulham, we predict that the visitors are going to return to London with their hands empty. Marco Silva should have a full squad to choose from for the midweek fixture, including fit-again striker Raul Jimenez, who is pushing for a recall to the starting XI.

Nottingham Forest vs Fulham Prediction
Nottingham Forest desperately need a result on Tuesday. They are level on points with Luton Town in the final relegation spot at the moment. With the away clash against Tottenham upcoming at the weekend, a potential home loss to Fulham might prove disastrous for Nuno Espirito Santo and his men. However, it is very hard to see them as the favourites in this game. Everything points towards Fulham’s success on Tuesday.
The visitors won five of the previous six head-to-head matches against. Nottingham Forest, including this season’s 5-0 drubbing in. December last year at Craven Cottage. Also, Nottingham Forest have won just one of the previous ten league outings while. Fulham come into this with three wins in the last five Premier League fixtures. You can back the visitors not to lose at the 1.50 odds.
Fulham have played attacking-minded football of late. Each of the last eight outings they played in all competitions provided three or more goals. The fact we’ve seen a six-goal thriller in their clash against Sheffield United three days ago says enough. Nottingham Forest produced a decent attacking showing against Palace on Saturday, registering five shots on target on the occasion. We see merit in backing the Both Teams To Score pick at the 1.66 odds.
