Forest are massive favourites to win tonight, and it will be a surprise if they draw or lose to City away from home at the Ashton Gate Stadium.
Wilbraham was denied a hat-trick by a brilliant De Vries save late on as City finished strongly, and Steve Cotterill’s side is now off the bottom of the Championship table thanks to its first home victory of the season.
They ran out 1-0 winners in week four against Middlesbrough thanks to Joe Bryan’s early goal, but unfortunately for them they failed to back that up in any of their next six matches.
Nottingham Forest will make the 144-mile trip to Ashton Gate to take on Bristol City this evening without no fewer than nine first-team players. I have a great group of lads who give everything and enjoy the way we play, but we are still adapting to Championship football.
Bristol City are desperately seeking a confidence boosting performance from somewhere and they now languish at the foot of the Championship table.
“We’re all professionals and we all want to do as well as we can for whatever club we’re playing for and I’m no different”.
“I’m sure there has been games where they’ve played really well this season and not picked up the points they deserve, but hopefully there will be games where we don’t play so well but we nick three points”.
