I am lucky enough to have a ticket for this one, Forest were a big team when I was growing up so I am looking forward to visiting. I know very little about this team but Everton are not very good and they couldn't beat them, so I will set off with some optimism. COYS

I reckon we'll win either way, but this will be one of those games where we either get an early goal and stroll through the rest of the match, or we struggle and one of the teams get a late-ish winner.

If Perišić starts we will dominate left side even if Son continues his bad form, which I believe will stop against them. Hope Conte makes subs sooner to keep the squad fresh.

I worry about the 2 in midfield, teams are working out how to play against us and it takes us til HT to change something to deal with them be nice to score early and then the opposition then having to change the way they play

Son will come good soon. Just takes a goal and three games in 6 days I’m sure he will

Be nice to start a game aggressively and impose ourselves on the opposition instead of having to react in games as we have so far this season

Need to get more passers into the team for fluidity asap, as that will help make us less lethargic, predictable and workmanlike as currently on show with slow build up and extra touches.
NF are not a battle hard PL side as Wolves so that will keep the game open. What they wil have is the energy, enthusiasm to compete. We need to match thier freshness, energetic competitive energy.

Father in law is a Forest fan, already said to him 4 points after 4 games is a decent start for them...

Given our performances so far this season, I fear we may struggle a little against a high-pressing, energetic Forest. That said, they've signed an entire small island nation and will likely not be all pulling in the right direction, giving us opportunities to exploit. I'm predicting 1-2 or 1-3 if Son finally gets his shooting boots fitted correctly.

Nottingham play Grimsby tonight in the League cup, not often that an opponent in the lower half of the table has a midweek game when we don't.

If we have any brains we should know exactly what they'll do - and in a sense, it may well play into our hands.

I'm sure there will be times in the game where we frustrate, and we moan amongst ourselves as to how/why we're on the back foot against a promoted side.

But I kind of feel Conte will know all this, and will be comfortable with the doing that.

Quietly confident....

Looking forward so much to this one. I think we are going to win, but as usual will probably be a tough encounter.

Very much this. Forest are playing so well so far this season, especially at home, so we're going to be under the cosh for long periods, but that might very well suit us because on the break, we're capable of crucifying most midfields and defences, especially if our wing backs are on blob. With Perisic and Royal (or Doherty) playing well, we could actually cause them all sorts of problems.

I'm going for a Spurs win, but it's not going to be an easy ride. 1-2.

We need to start quicker than we have so far this season, because if they get the fans going it's going to be a tough old afternoon

Yeah for sure, was just poking fun. I think they'll be a solid outfit, I think a narrow victory but probably a bit of a slog
Didn’t judge the comments in anyway. It may be a slug if we allow it to, be. We should be good enough to control the game. No game is easy but all games are winnable.we are a good side we just need to be ready and up for it.
