Fulham host Nottingham Forest at Craven Cottage on Saturday and both teams are playing with house money.
WATCH – Fulham v Nottingham Forest
Marco Silva’s Fulham remain in the European hunt as they won late on at Newcastle last time out in the Premier League. Raul Jimenez is back among the goals and Fulham have some much attacking quality with USMNT left back Antonee Robinson leading them with assists and Iwobi, Smith Rowe and others stepping up. The Cottagers are a lot of fun to watch and they have great balance about their team.
Nottingham Forest battered Brighton 7-0 last time out in the Premier League as Nuno Espirito Santo’s side are in the Champions League hunt, against all the odds. Forest know this is the type of game they have to win to keep their top four hopes alive as the clubs beneath them in the table are starting to build some momentum. Still, there’s no fear or pressure at Forest because they’ve already exceeded expectations for this season.

Fulham team news, focus
Jimenez and Muniz are both scoring when they’re on the pitch but the Mexican striker has the edge to start. For now. Behind him Smith Rowe and Iwobi have been excellent in attacking midfield and Fulham look so solid and sturdy.
OUT: Harry Wilson (foot), Kenny Tete (knee), Reiss Nelson (hamstring)
Nottingham Forest team news, focus
Forest had a big scrap away at third-tier Exeter City in the FA Cup on Tuesday, which they won on penalty kicks after a grueling 120 minutes. That could impact the team and a few changes but we can expect the usual trip of Wood, Gibbs-White and Elanga to be dangerous and ruthless in attack.
OUT: Carlos Miguel (thigh), Taiwo Awoniyi (head) | QUESTIONABLE: Murillo (thigh), Callum Hudson-Odoi (hip)
Fulham vs Nottingham Forest prediction
This should be a fun one as both teams go all-out for the win and are very dangerous on counter attacks. Expect plenty of goals. Fulham 3-2 Nottingham Forest.
