Super Eagles striker Taiwo Awoniyi hopes to become only the third Nottingham Forest to score in three consecutive league games when they host Arsenal in the league’s penultimate game on Saturday.
Awoniyi who has been in a blistering goal scoring form, scored braces in Forests last two games against Southampton and Chelsea.
Only two Nottingham Forest players, Dougie Freedman and Danilo have scored in three consecutive league games.
Freedman achieved the feat in the 1998/99 season while Danilo scored against Brighton, Brentford and Southampton this season to equal the feat.
