Fulham vs Nottingham Forest Analysis
Fulham has had some impressive showings this term, but their place in the table doesn’t exactly show that. Marco Silva’s men sit in 15th place with a 6-2-8 record, scoring 23 goals while conceding 26. As things stand, they’re seven points above safety. The Cottagers aren’t in the best form right now, losing three of their last four matches. On a more positive note, all of those defeats were by just one goal, and Fulham nearly completed an epic comeback against Manchester City on December 2, giving the EPL giants a serious run for their money.
The goals finally started to show up last weekend at Turf Moor, with the visitors bagging two of their three goals by the 31st minute. Harry Wilson added another early in the second half and while Burnley got one back, it was too little too late. Four of Fulham’s wins this season have come on home soil, where they own a 4-1-3 record. On the road, Silva’s side is just 2-1-5. The Craven Cottage atmosphere is undoubtedly an advantage for Fulham.
After an impressive seventh-place finish in 2024-25, Nottingham Forest have seriously regressed. They’re only five points above the relegation zone in 16th, compiling a poor 5-3-8 record. Chris Wood’s struggles in front of goal and his injury problems have played a huge part in Forest’s inability to produce the goods. They’ve scored only 17 times in 16 games.
But, the form is starting to improve for the visitors, who have three wins in their last four appearances across all competitions. Forest took down Utrecht in Europa on December 11 before making quick work of Spurs a week ago.
Former Chelsea man Callum Hudson-Odoi played hero for the Tricky Trees, scoring a brace within the opening 50 minutes. Ibrahim Sangare netted the third. Forest have now scored at least twice in their last seven games, even beating Liverpool 3-0 last month as well. They’re definitely improving, but ending a cold spell against Fulham on Monday is vital to work their way up the table.
Fulham vs Nottingham Forest Injury News
Fulham’s absences are much in part due to the Africa Cup of Nations. Alex Iwobi, Samuel Chukwueze, and Calvin Bassey are all representing their respective countries in the tournament, which means they won’t play on Monday. Ryan Sessegnon and Rodrigo Muniz are also unavailable for the hosts. Chris Wood remains out with a knee injury for Forest, while Sangare is also playing in AFCON. Ola Aina and Ryan Yates won’t suit up, either.
Fulham vs Nottingham Forest Picks
As you can see, there’s a lot of absences here. But, Fulham’s are definitely more impactful. Despite their perfect 3-0-0 record against Forest at Craven Cottage, I’ll take the visitors to snatch a point here against a Fulham side missing too many key players.
Pick: Draw +225 (TonyBet)
