Forest were home to Danish powers Midtjylland in the first leg of their UEL Round of 16 tie on Thursday, when they fell 1-0 on an 80th-minute goal from Gue-sung Cho. They can’t afford to focus on the second leg because their 28 points only have them out of the Premier League bottom three by virtue of four measures of goal differential.
Fulham have endured a long wait for their next Premier League game — a March 4 home loss to West Ham — and their lone action wasn’t a positive one. The Cottagers were knocked out of the FA Cup by Southampton on Sunday, and Marco Silva’s defeat at the hands of a second-tier side was not well-regarded by the Craven Cottage faithful. Their 40 points in the Premier League are well clear of a relegation battle. Fulham lag four points off seventh-place Brentford and they’ve realistically run out of acceptable points to drop in matches like this — even away from home — as they seek a berth in Europe next season.

Nottingham Forest vs Fulham prediction
Home cooking is important but this really should be a Fulham success story even if Harry Wilson doesn’t find his way into the XI. The Cottagers are rested and pretty healthy while Forest couldn’t afford much rotation Thursday in the UEL. It’s just about Fulham finding the final ball. Nottingham Forest 0-1 Fulham.
