  • Current Records: Nottingham Forest 5-9-5; Bournemouth 4-11-4

What to Know

Nottingham Forest will head off to play at Vitality Stadium to try and steal back a positive result from Bournemouth after losing their first round-robin matchup. They will face off against one another at 10 a.m. ET on Saturday. Allowing an average of 1.79 points per game, Nottingham Forest has been asleep on the defensive side of the ball and will need to wake up before the matchup.

Nottingham Forest kept a clean sheet against Leicester City on Saturday and took the match 2-0. The score was all tied up at the break nothing to nothing, but Nottingham Forest was the better team in the second half.

Meanwhile, Bournemouth came up short against Brentford on Saturday, falling 2-0.

Nottingham Forest's win lifted them to 5-9-5 (13th place with 20 points) while Bournemouth's defeat dropped them down to 4-11-4 (17th place with 16 points). We'll see if Nottingham Forest can repeat their recent success or if newcomer Bournemouth bounces back and reverse their fortune.
