Nottingham secured only their second league-win of the campaign against Chelsea last time out thanks to Anthony Elanga’s lone goal three minutes into the second half. The result helped Forest to move to six points from their opening four top flight games, and they entered the weekend sitting pretty in ninth spot in the standings, but they since have been bumped down to 12th owning to the results on Saturday. Nevertheless, by defeating Sheffield United in their first home encounter of the season, Steve Cooper’s side have impressively won each of their last four league-games at the City Ground and will be looking to extend that impressive run when they host newly promoted Burnley on Monday.
Burnely, on the other hand, are seeking to secure their first point on board since earning promotion to the Premier League courtesy of winning the Championship title last term. The Clarets have lost each of their opening three top tier games this season, scoring just three goals and conceding 11 in the process. Meanwhile, their only victory this season came against Monday’s opponents in the EFL Cup tie on August 30 thanks to Zeki Amdouni’s lone goal in the 90th-minute. Three days later, Vincent Kompany’s side lost out to Spurs in a league-fixture despite the fact that Lyle Foster and Josh Brownhill got on the scoresheet. Burnely are now languishing at the 19th spot in the English top flight standings, yet to open their account, and with only Luton Town behind them.
Nottingham Forest probable starting lineup: Turner, Boly, Worrall, McKenna, Montiel, Yates, Mangala, Aina, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi, Awoniyi
Burnley probable starting lineup: Trafford, Al-Dakhil, O’Shea, Beyer, Roberts, Redmond, Cullen, Berge, Zaroury, Amdouni, Foster
