Nottingham Forest face an important game in their battle to avoid relegation from the Premier League when they take on Fulham at the City Ground on Saturday afternoon.
The Tricky Trees are only outside of the drop zone on goal difference, and could slip into it if they do not get a positive result here.
Their confidence has also taken a hit after losing the first leg of their Europa League last-16 clash 1-0 at home to Midtjylland in midweek, although that came after a spirited 2-2 draw away to Manchester City in the league.
Meanwhile, Fulham have their own European aspirations this season as while they are only in 10th place in the league, they are only a few points off of potential European spots for next season.
The Cottagers were in FA Cup action last time out, disappointingly losing 1-0 at home to Championship outfit Southampton, while they also lost by the same scoreline to West Ham United in their last league outing.
As such, both teams are not in the best of form heading into this clash, so it is difficult to see who could emerge with all three points.
How the bookies view it: Forest favourites for vital victory
Given home advantage, bet365 have Forest as 5/4 favourites to win this one. A draw can still be backed at 12/5, while a Fulham victory is valued at 9/4.
Recent head-to-head: Fulham collect points at Craven Cottage
The reverse fixture was played just before Christmas last year, where Fulham won 1-0 at Craven Cottage.
Raul Jimenez scored the winner from the penalty spot in a frantic match that saw as many as nine yellow cards dished out – five for Fulham and four for Forest.
Players to watch: Jimenez on the spot again?
Morgan Gibbs-White scored Forest's first goal in their draw with City, and has netted twice in as many league appearances recently.
Jimenez scored in the reverse fixture, and has netted five times for Fulham since then.
Should he be cleared to play after the sad recent passing of his father, we like his odds to score anytime at 21/10 with bet365.
Predicted line-ups
Jair Cunha could be added to Forest's increasing injury list after he was forced off early against Midtjylland.
Despite Jimenez's tragic news, he has trained, while Harry Wilson could also return from injury.
Nottingham Forest: Sels; Milenkovic, Murillo, Morato; Aina, Anderson, Dominguez, Williams; Hutchinson, Gibbs-White, Jesus
Fulham: Leno; Tete, Diop, Bassey, Sessegnon; Iwobi, Berge; Wilson, Smith Rowe, Chukwueze; Jimenez
Anything else catch the eye?
Given the sheer volume of cards that were given out in the reverse fixture and the high stakes of the match, we are happy to back Over 4.5 cards at 6/5 with bet365.
In terms of predicting a result, Forest are winless in five games in all competitions (D1, L4), while Fulham have lost their previous two.
With that in mind, a draw appeals to us at 12/5 with bet365, which in truth would not suit either side.
