Everything you need to know about Nottingham Forest vs Burnley

It's time for our Premier League predictions for Monday night's clash between Nottingham Forest and Burnley live from The City Ground. The hosts have made a bright start to the campaign with two wins from their opening four matches and head into this game as the clear favourite with the bookmakers. Burnley are yet to get their first points on the board since making their return to the Premier League so even a draw would be a decent result for Kompany's men.

• The hosts have only played one game at home in the league so far, a 2-1 victory over Sheffield United.
• Burnley have lost each of their opening three league games, all of which were at Turf Moor.

Both Teams to Score

• Both teams have scored in three of Nottingham Forest's last five outings.
• Three of Burnley's last five fixtures have also produced goals at both ends of the pitch.

Nottingham Forest vs Burnley Lineups and Last Match

Nottingham Forest

Forest made the trip to Stamford Bridge before the international break and managed to come away with all 3pts against the odds. This tight and tense game endured a goalless first half but early in the second, Elanga came off the bench to score his first goal for the club since arriving from Manchester United. That proved enough for the visitors to win the game against a misfiring Chelsea side. Hennessey and Danilo are the two main injury concerns for Nottingham Forest this weekend and their participation will all come down to late fitness tests.

Predicted Lineup – Turner (GK), Aurier, Boly, Aina, McKenna, Worrall, Mangala, Gibbs-White, Yates, Elanga & Awoniyi 

Burnely

Burnley learned another harsh lesson last time out as they were thrashed 5-2 in their own backyard but Tottenham. Despite taking the lead in the 4th minute through Foster, Burnley conceded five goals before Brownhill netted in stoppage-time to make the final scoreline 5-2. Zaroury returns to the side following a suspension, while da Silva, Ramsey, Obafemi, Churlinov and Ekdal are all doubts for the trip to the Midlands due to injury.

Predicted Lineup –  Trafford (GK), Roberts, O'Shea, Beyer, Al Dakhil, Guðmunds­son, Berge, Cullen, Foster, Amdouni & Koleosho

Player to Watch: Taiwo Awoniyi

Nottingham Forest's main striker Awoniyi has made a big impression at the start of the 2023/24 season.

Last time out the Nigerian forward scored 10-goals in the Premier League, helping to keep Nottingham Forest in the top flight. With four games played in the new season, Awoniyi has already hit eh back of the net three times, helping the club to secure two wins.

With his confidence flowing and knowing that he has previously scored 15 times in a single Bundesliga campaign for Union Berlin, Awoniyi might just go on to enjoy his best-ever scoring season and if he does, surely Forest will feel the benefit once again.
