An interesting clash between overperforming teams is set for the Premier League on Saturday. But, which club will be the winning selection when making a Bournemouth vs. Nottingham Forest pick?

The Cherries come into this round in excellent recent form, extending their unbeaten run to ten matches with a fine 4-1 win at Newcastle last Saturday.

However, Nottingham Forest will also be in good confidence after winning four of their last five to sit third in the Premier League standings, and within six points of Liverpool.

Bournemouth vs. Nottingham Forest Pick

It’s likely that Forest will have one eye on the Liverpool vs. Ipswich clash this weekend, as the Tricky Trees could move to within three points of the summit. However, the trends don’t favor the away side this weekend.

Draws have been a common outcome in this fixture, and a fourth tie in six EPL matches between the sides could be likely when making a Bournemouth vs. Nottingham Forest pick.
