Nottingham Forest is gearing up to extend their unbeaten start in the Premier League as they prepare to face Fulham at the City Ground this weekend. After a hard-fought 2-2 draw against Brighton and Hove Albion in their last match, the Reds are determined to showcase their resilience and maintain their positive form.
However, the upcoming game against Fulham will come with its challenges as Forest will be without the services of Morgan Gibbs-White, who is serving a one-match suspension following his red card in the previous game. Despite this setback, head coach Nuno Espirito Santo will be back on the touchline to lead his team against Marco Silva’s Fulham side.
Injury concerns continue to trouble Forest, as key players such as Danilo, Ibrahim Sangare, and Willy Boly remain sidelined. Danilo is currently recovering from a broken ankle suffered early in the season, with hopes pinned on his return to training by December. Sangare, on the other hand, is facing a significant spell on the sidelines due to a hamstring issue that required surgery. Boly, who picked up a calf injury during international duty, is also in the recovery phase and is expected to rejoin the squad soon.
Nuno emphasized the importance of patience and caution in the rehabilitation process for the injured players, highlighting the need for proper recovery to ensure their long-term fitness and availability for the team. Despite the challenges posed by the injuries, Forest remains focused on maintaining their unbeaten streak and securing a positive result against Fulham. As they navigate through a period of depleted squad depth, the team is determined to showcase their resilience and determination on the field.
