Bournemouth, despite losing star players Nathan Ake and Callum Wilson in the summer, have done well this season. Striker Dominic Solanke has looked sharp, while Welsh midfielder David Brooks, linked with Manchester United, could prove to be a crucial player as the season progresses.
Nottingham Forest, on the other hand, sit 20th in the league table. Chris Hughton's men have won two of their last five games, and players like Anthony Knockaert, Joe Lolley and Lyle Taylor will have to be at their very best.
Bournemouth will be confident after their comeback win over Reading, and should edge past Nottingham Forest on Tuesday.
