History of the Nottingham Forest v Bournemouth fixture

Nottm. Forest prepare to entertain Bournemouth at City Ground on Saturday afternoon, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The majority of those games have been won by the Forest.

The most recent encounter between these two sides at City Ground was less than a year ago, in April 2007, with Nottm. Forest running out comfortable 3-0 winners in a League One match.
