THE PREDICTION
Following a 2-0 loss away to high flying Bournemouth in midweek, Nottingham Forest return to the City Ground, where Swansea are the visitors. Of course, Swansea were the side who pipped Forest into the Championship playoff places last season, which will surely still rankle with the players on the home team. The Swans are unbeaten in their last eight games, whilst Chris Hughton’s men have gone four games without defeat at home, winning their last two. This looks set up to be an intriguing encounter between two sides with strong squads, albeit the hosts have not really shown that quality enough this season. With home advantage here though, they will prove a good match for Swansea and with little to separate the two, a draw may be on the cards.
