Hello and welcome to our live blog on Saturday as the Robins look for four straight wins in this championship in early 2020/21 season
Bristol City traveled to Nottinghamshire on Friday via multiple coaches and now face Nottingham Forest – who are chasing their first points of the season
After three defeats and this calamitous final day ousted from the play-off positions last season, opposition boss Sabri Lamouchi will desperately need a reward from today’s game Can City turn the screw?
A chance to win the first four games of the season for the first time since 1927 presents itself to Dean Holden today.If that happens, people might start to take this Robins outfit a little more seriously
A visitor counter sees Martin feeding Weimann to cross low so that Wells meets almost in the middle Samba intercepts well
Freeman passes and Grabban dives to the broad head of the Moore goal not close enough to the mark
Paterson comes back down but nothing helps as Ionnau catches him Try a cheeky lob a minute later
Bakinson steals the dangerous Mighten from the ball as the Forest Wing attacks Ville then attacks through Wells and Martin
Big upcoming half of the Robins here They were flying and created a lot of good chances But how good is that defense? We will find out now
The home side started slowly but Freeman got them back in and there is going to be a lot of pressure coming in this second half
Huge test now – if City succeed they may have to score more One win probably proves this team is legitimate: a real contender for promotion this season
Mawson’s awesome old-fashioned hack on Mighten to get the Forest Bench on their feet Stops host attacks
Take a shot right next to it before directing a corner off target too Here comes the side of the house
Forest again in this game – via the former City midfielder of his strike for his first goal since arriving from Sheffield United
The home team is back as former Robin recovers the ball in the middle of the field and shoots 25 meters
No penalty says referee Stroud as Soh covers Right decision to be fair Bakinson then steps in to stop forest construction
Not just in the score The intensity of the home side has dropped here Mental fragility on display here Paterson is the latest to almost hit the mark
Another great move from City and the Robins were very helpful for their lead as they had several good chances Paterson was instrumental in preparing for this one, but Martin with two assists today (almost ; the first included a Forest key after its removal)
A town in « dreamland » according to commentators here as Martin walks towards a cross for Wells to spin and hang on to goal
This time it’s Samba with a great save as he turns his head at close range from Martin Not sure he knew much
Freeman crosses and the ball falls for Arter – but Bentley saves again and once again in the resulting goal-mouth scrum Another top save
Second of the season for Weimann, with Wells heavily involved in the progression He descended to City’s right flank as Martin retreated and the ball was not cleared, but he sat down so that the City man could score up close
The ball fell very gently for Weimann inside the box, so the Austrian wound up in the corner just eight meters away
Paterson wins set-piece and visitors receive three in a row Sloppy vyner pass allows Robins to clear their lines
Bentley pushes a Mighten header over the crossbar Superb Bentley Cross Iannou Brillant stop
