How both teams go into Bournemouth vs Nottingham Forest

Bournemouth struggled initially this season, managing only one win from their opening five games, which included back-to-back defeats. However, they have since recovered, although their performance has been inconsistent. After experiencing another stretch of consecutive losses, Andoni Iraola’s side managed to string together a three-game winning streak and is currently on an eight-game unbeaten run, consisting of five wins and three draws. This impressive performance has lifted them to seventh place in the Premier League table, putting them within reach of the Champions League spots.

On the other hand, Nottingham Forest currently finds themselves in third place but is denied second due to a lower goal difference. After narrowly avoiding relegation last season, Forest has emerged as this year’s surprise package. Head coach Nuno Espírito Santo is keeping expectations in check. Despite the positive momentum, Forest’s form has been mixed; they are currently on a six-game winning streak, having won seven of their last eight matches. The former two-time European champions recently faced challenges away from home, managing only one win from five attempts, but they have bounced back by winning their last four straight matches.
