Forest's league form reads worse: just one win in their last seven, away at Aston Villa, with defeats to Arsenal, Crystal Palace, Coventry and Leeds mixed with two draws against Tottenham and Liverpool.

Forest's only league win in this run came away from home, so they're not entirely without spark on the road.

Comparative Team Statistics: Bournemouth vs Nottingham Forest

Head-to-Head

There have been draws too, including the most recent meeting between these two in May 2026, so the head-to-head record isn't one-sided across the board.

How This One Could Go

Bournemouth have looked sharper going forward at home, scoring freely against Sunderland and in Europa League matches, but they've also shipped goals in some of their harder league tests.

Forest's away form has been leaky too, conceding in several of their recent away and home losses, yet their win at Aston Villa shows they can still cause problems on the road.
