Crystal Palace started the campaign by lifting the Community Shield after beating Liverpool on penalties, but the Eagles were unable to continue their winning momentum as they recorded a 0-0 drab draw with Chelsea on the opening day of the Premier League season.

As a result, Oliver Glasner's side will be looking to secure their first three points of the campaign on Sunday, while Forest will be looking to maintain their perfect start to the term.
