Bournemouth’s recent form is even more impressive, taking into account her extensive injury list. It is noteworthy that they will be left without ten players in the first team against Forest, as Andoni Iraola’s dynamic approach makes its taxes.

In defense, the Tseri will be without the three upper right -handers – James Hill, Adam Smith and Julian Araujo – and Mark Senesi is missing in the center. The January soldier, Julio Soler, is currently not available due to international commitments with the Argentine Under-20 team.

Alex Scott is the only absent in the midfield, but the Bournemouth offensive line is affected by physical fitness problems. Evantilson and Units of Unal are out of the game, the second out for the rest of the season, while Luis Sinistra is also not available. Marcus Tavernier returns to training, but Iraola has confirmed that he remains doubtful this weekend.

Bournemouth’s prediction against Nottingham Forest (4-2-3-1): Kepa? Cook, Zabarnyi, Huijsen, Kerkez; Christie, Adams? Brooks, Kluivert, Semenyo; Ouattara.

Callum Hudson-Ooii

Ibrahim Shangar is a long-standing absent for Forest in the engine room, and Callum Hudson-Odoy is their only doubt to appear against Bournemouth. The extremist retired due to tightening in the groin last weekend in the victory over Southampton.

Chris Wood and Murillo were two of Forest’s protagonists this season, and both will begin for the first time since the signing of new contracts.

The prediction of the eleven of Nottingham Forest against Bournemouth (4-2-3-1): Sels; Aina, Milenkovic, Murillo, Williams; Yates, Anderson? Elanga, Gibbs-White, Jota; Wood.

These teams clashed on the day of the season and shared the spoils from a tough tactic battle. Saturday could create a similar story at Vitality Stadium.

Forest is likely to reach the rear seat on the south coast as it sits deeply and tries to frustrate their injured hosts. Bournemouth’s intensity proved to be excessive for Newcastle last weekend, but could find life more difficult against a persistent and well -organized rear line.

With the two teams in excellent form, it is difficult to choose the winner between these two over -performance, without either worrying too much about sharing the points again this weekend.
