Fulham visits the City Ground today, looking to secure a Premier League double over Nottingham Forest and boost their chances for European qualification.

The Cottagers are just four points shy of seventh place after a disappointing 1–0 loss at home to West Ham in their previous league match. Manager Marco Silva has guided the team through a strong phase recently, facing an opponent they have significantly outperformed lately, winning six of their last seven meetings in the top flight. Fulham has an impressive 86% win rate against Forest, their highest against any team they’ve faced more than twice in the Premier League.

Fulham team news

Marco Silva has nearly his full squad available and is set to have a key player back. Harry Wilson has returned to training and could be included in the squad.

This gives Silva multiple options going forward, including Raúl Jiménez, who has a strong scoring record against Forest, averaging a goal involvement every 65 minutes. Joachim Andersen remains vital for defense, leading central defenders in carry numbers this season.

Bernd Leno will start in goal, with a back four likely consisting of Joachim Andersen and Calvin Bassey. In midfield, expect Sander Berge and Alex Iwobi to manage the flow of play, while Samuel Chukwueze, Emile Smith Rowe, and Oscar Bobb provide creativity.

Fulham ranks high in the league for successful passes per game (401) and will aim to utilize this possession to break down a Forest defense that has struggled at home lately. Raúl Jiménez is set to be the focal point, looking to keep his streak of goal involvements against the hosts.
