The English Championship continues this week and will see Fulham host Nottingham Forest at Craven Cottage on Tuesday night.

Fulham have already secured promotion to the Premier League. They played out a 1-1 draw against second-placed Bournemouth last time out in a highly tense clash at the Vitality Stadium on Saturday.

The Cottagers remain at the top of the league table with 87 points from 43 games. They will be looking to return to winning ways this week as they seek to confirm a first-place finish.

Nottingham Forest look set to secure playoff football and are now targeting automatic promotion to the top-flight via a second-place finish. They beat Peterborough United 1-0 in their last game, with Sam Surridge scoring the sole goal of the game to confirm relegation for the Posh.

Nottingham Forest sit fourth in the Championship standings with 73 points from 42 games. They will be looking to continue their strong run as they push for promotion.

Fulham vs Nottingham Forest Prediction

Fulham have achieved their major goal of the season by securing promotion. Their efforts will now be channeled towards securing the top spot in the league and they are well on course to do so.

Nottingham Forest, on the other hand, are still in the race for promotion and can achieve that automatically should they leapfrog Bournemouth in second-place. The Reds are the more driven side ahead of Tuesday's clash and we expect them to come out on top.

Prediction: Fulham 1-2 Nottingham Forest
