Nottingham Forest has kicked off the 2024/25 season impressively, currently sitting in eighth place in the Premier League. With two wins and three draws in their first five games, they are one of the four unbeaten teams at this stage. Although they drew 2-2 against Brighton, with Morgan Gibbs-White receiving a red card, the Reds have shown strength in their summer signings and quality-over-quantity approach.
Pundit Robbie Earle even admitted to changing his mind about Forest after their victory against Liverpool, a sentiment shared by many pundits. As they prepare to face Fulham this weekend, things are looking up for the Reds, who are aiming to secure points and improve their home form after a win against the Cottagers back in April.
Alan Brazil expressed his surprise on his show this morning, praising Forest for their unexpected success this season. With nine points already under their belt, Forest aims to continue their strong start and maintain a comfortable position away from the relegation battle. The team’s focus is on accumulating points quickly and staying clear of the bottom three throughout the season.
Recruitment has been key for Forest, and with a settled team, they hope to see further improvements as the season progresses. Although Fulham poses a tough challenge after their recent win against Newcastle, Forest is determined to enhance their home form and secure a positive result this weekend under the guidance of Nuno Espirito Santo.
