Nottingham Forest is coming into this match with no recent trend to the over in their matches. They have gone under 2.5 goals in their last 5 straight matches, but they have been in better form in their last 2 matches as both ended in 1-1 draws. They are going up against a Fulham side that has been trending to the over in their recent matches. They have gone over 2.5 goals in their last 8 straight matches and their attack has been very good in these. Their attack has been on fire recently as they have scored at least 3 goals in each of their last 2 as well as 3 of their last 4 matches, they have also scored at least 2 goals in 6 of their last 8 matches as well. Their defense has not been great though as they have allowed at least 2 goals in 2 of their last 3 matches and they allowed 3 goals in their last match alone. When playing away from home, they have gone over 2.5 goals in their last 4 straight matches with their attack playing very well as they have been averaging 2 goals scored per match in that span, but they have also been averaging 2 goals allowed per match in that span, allowing 5 goals in their last 2 matches alone. Nottingham Forest has been in much better form in their last 2 matches but they really need to take advantage of these home matches with their 4 point deduction, currently sitting in 17th tied with Luton Town in the relegation zone, so Nottingham Forest needs to start puching their attack in these matches and Fulham has the kind of defense that will concede goals in this match. Fulham also has a very potent attack themselves and Nottingham has not been keeping teams out of their net recently so Fulham will be able to find the net here as well. Between these two sides, there will be enough goals in this match to push it over 2.5 goals.
