Forest are now 4 points ahead of Cardiff having played the same amount of games.
Leeds picked up a win as well but Norwich went down at Burnley. Millwall and Leicester edged to withiin three points of City but both have played two games more.
The form teams are putting the pressure on and Cardiff must respond with victories or automatic promotion will be out of reach. Defeat at Swansea tomorrow would see City battling to keep a play off place.
