However, a solid 2-2 draw away to Brighton last weekend helped them maintain their impressive run. Forest\u2019s traveling form is historic, marking their first unbeaten streak of five Premier League away games since October 1995. As they return to the City Ground, fans may have mixed feelings, considering their struggles at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Nottingham Forest\u2019s Home Struggles<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Forest\u2019s home form is cause for concern, as their last five Premier League matches at the City Ground have ended without a win (D3, L2). This season, both home encounters\u2014against Bournemouth and Wolves\u2014ended in 1-1 draws, extending their winless run at home. The Forest faithful will be hoping for a change of fortune, but they\u2019ll be wary of their poor record against Fulham, losing eight of their last 11 head-to-head Premier League encounters (W3).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Forest\u2019s 3-1 victory over Fulham in last season\u2019s corresponding fixture offers a glimmer of hope. Can the Tricky Trees replicate that performance and end their winless streak at home?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Fulham\u2019s Away Woes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Fulham entered this match after a convincing 3-1 home win over Newcastle, showcasing their ability to upset the Premier League\u2019s big teams. However, their away form has been less impressive. They\u2019ve only managed three wins in their last 20 Premier League away matches (D7, L10). Their recent 1-1 draw with newly promoted Ipswich highlighted their struggles against teams considered \u2018lesser\u2019 than the top-flight giants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fulham, however, will draw confidence from their record against Forest. They\u2019ve beaten Nottingham Forest more times in the league (42) than any other club in their history. With history on their side, they\u2019ll be looking to secure all three points and continue their climb up the table.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/img_v3_00et_e4ab7e24-832a-4f17-a973-c2586e2e13hu-1-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"Bangbet Kenya\u2019s Tax-Free Betting Promotion\" class=\"wp-image-4999\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/img_v3_00et_e4ab7e24-832a-4f17-a973-c2586e2e13hu-1-1024x1024.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/img_v3_00et_e4ab7e24-832a-4f17-a973-c2586e2e13hu-1-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/img_v3_00et_e4ab7e24-832a-4f17-a973-c2586e2e13hu-1-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/img_v3_00et_e4ab7e24-832a-4f17-a973-c2586e2e13hu-1-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/img_v3_00et_e4ab7e24-832a-4f17-a973-c2586e2e13hu-1-696x696.png 696w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/img_v3_00et_e4ab7e24-832a-4f17-a973-c2586e2e13hu-1-1068x1068.png 1068w, https:\/\/www.bangbet.com\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/09\/img_v3_00et_e4ab7e24-832a-4f17-a973-c2586e2e13hu-1.png 1080w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key Players to Watch<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Chris Wood has been in fine form this season for Nottingham Forest, scoring three goals, all of which have been match-openers. Wood\u2019s ability to find the net early could give Forest the edge to overcome their home struggles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On Fulham\u2019s side, Emile Smith Rowe has had a stellar start to life at Craven Cottage. With three goal contributions in five matches (G2, A1), including a standout performance in their victory over Newcastle, Smith Rowe will be a crucial player to watch. His creativity and finishing ability could be pivotal for Fulham\u2019s attacking efforts against Forest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Hot Stat: Both Teams Likely to Score<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Both teams have found the net in six of Forest\u2019s last seven home league matches, including their previous head-to-head clash. With both sides having plenty of attacking talent, we can expect goals at both ends of the pitch in this encounter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prediction: A Competitive, High-Scoring Draw<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Given the trends, Nottingham Forest\u2019s home woes and Fulham\u2019s struggles on the road, this match will likely be closely contested. Forest\u2019s impressive away form has masked their home difficulties, while Fulham\u2019s inconsistency against non-elite sides remains a concern. Expect an entertaining match with both teams getting on the scoresheet, but a 2-2 draw seems the most likely outcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Bet on the Action with BangSports<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you looking to make the most of this exciting Premier League clash?
