POLL: Where will Nottingham Forest finish in Premier League table? Have your say

Nottingham Forest climbed out of the Premier League relegation zone with their 3-1 win over Man City

Liam Delap and Morgan Gibbs-White celebrate Nottingham Forest's win over Manchester City

The winless run is over, as is the City Ground goal drought, and now Nottingham Forest will be looking to kick on.

Saturday’s memorable 3-1 triumph over Manchester City needs to be a turning point for the Reds. It has to be the performance standard-setter under Oliver Glasner.

Forest had been without a victory for five games prior to the weekend. They hadn’t won at home in the league since April and hadn’t scored on their own turf all season. They were in the relegation zone ahead of kick-off.

Thanks to a brilliant Jair Cunha opener and a stunning Liam Delap brace, Glasner’s men now have a spring in their step going into the international break. Three points moved them up to 16th in the table, albeit just one point above the dreaded dotted line.

There is still a lot of work to do and the Reds know they need to build on what happened Trentside when the domestic action resumes in a fortnight. With that in mind, we want to know how you think the remainder of the campaign will pan out.

Are you confident Forest can climb up the rankings, with Saturday a turning point? Do you think the result can spark a run of good form?

Or do you remain unconvinced for the time being? It is still tight at the bottom end of the division, so do you worry the club are not out of the woods when it comes to being embroiled in a relegation scrap?

You can have your say in the widget below. You can also leave a comment at the end of this article, letting us know your thoughts. We are keen to hear whether Saturday has changed your mind about where the Reds will finish.

As it stands, stats experts Opta are tipping Forest to finish 14th with 43.54 points. They put the club’s chances of suffering the drop at 24.50 per cent.

At the other end of the scale, Glasner’s side are given a 1.30 per cent chance of clinching Europa League football and a 0.91 per cent chance of making the Champions League. The possibility of an unlikely title win is put at 0.00 per cent.

Glasner’s former club Crystal Palace are tipped to go down, along with Coventry City and Sunderland. The Reds are backed to also finish above Hull City, Ipswich Town and Fulham.

Match of the Day pundit Danny Murphy believes Forest will quickly put a tough start to the campaign behind them. Up until Saturday, results had not kept pace with performance levels, but the hosts put that right at the weekend as they signed off for the break in style.

Murphy said: “It was a wonderful all-round performance. There was endeavour without the ball, quality with it and end product, which they’ve been missing.

“They’ve actually been playing quite well and their points tally doesn’t reflect the level of their performances. I think this could be a huge turning point for Glasner and his players. The place was rocking, the fans were back on board and the level of performance all-round - collectively and individually - was top drawer.

“A good day for them and the start of things to come, I would imagine. They are a good side, well-organised, and I think he is a terrific manager. I expect them to progress up the table.”
