Bristol City play host to Nottingham Forest at Ashton Gate on Saturday afternoon, needing to improve on a poor record between the sides. The visitors have won 13 of the 32 previous games, with the Robins winning just 9.
The last time the two teams met at Bristol City was back in September 1999, over five years ago, when they played out a goalless draw in a League Cup match.
