Head-to-head record
Previous meetings: 108
Fulham wins: 47
Draws: 28
Nott'm Forest wins: 33
Fulham and Nottingham Forest have faced each other a total of 108 times across all competitions and it is the Cottagers who lead the overall head-to-head record, as they have won 47 games compared to the Tricky Trees' 33, while 28 draws have been played out between the two clubs.
Their very first meeting took place back in February 1905 when Fulham secured a slender 1-0 home win in the second round of the FA Cup. However, Forest got their revenge a year later as they won 3-1 in the same fixture at the exact same stage of the competition.
Between 1911 and 1956, Fulham and Nottingham Forest regularly butted heads in Division Two, with the Cottagers claiming 22 wins compared to the Tricky Trees' 15 across 50 league encounters.
Fulham also won seven times to Forest's five across 18 meetings in Division One between 1959 and 1968, but the Cottagers came out on top in only two of their next 10 matches back in Division Two.
Following a 22-year separation, Fulham and Forest reunited in the second tier in 1999, and Fulham accumulated eight points across four league fixtures against Forest, and also won a EFL Cup fourth-round tie 4-2 away from home.
Forest locked horns with Fulham in the Championship on 12 occasions between 2014 and 2022, and they won three of the first four of those, including a thrilling 5-3 home victory in September 2014, but the Cottagers then won five of the next eight league meetings, including a comfortable 4-0 away triumph in October 2021.
In the Premier League, Fulham and Forest have only ever faced each other six times to date, with the Cottagers winning five of those, including a memorable 5-0 home victory in December 2023 and a 2-1 home success in February 2025.
