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 2006, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1-1 final scoreline in a League One match.
