Josko Gvardiol headed beyond a despairing Mark Travers to offer hope but the Premier League champions were unable to grab an equaliser.Chris Wood continued his superb start to the season as Nottingham Forest beat West Ham in the Premier League on Saturday.
Forest came into the match as one of the league’s in-form sides, having won 16 points from their opening nine games while taking points off both Liverpool and Chelsea.
Wood’s form has been a key factor in the strong start, and it was the striker’s close-range header that gave the home side the lead at the City Ground.
West Ham boss Julen Lopetegui fielded three centre-backs in an effort to keep the New Zealand international quiet, but Wood was left completely unmarked to convert Alex Moreno’s cross from six yards out and take his season tally to eight.
The visitors struggled for much of the first half, and their task was made all the more difficult when Edson Alvarez was shown a second yellow card for scything down Anthony Elanga on the stroke of half-time.
West Ham improved after the break but Callum Hudson-Odoi doubled Forest’s lead when his cross sneaked past Lukasz Fabianski at the back post.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s side looked happy to see out the result before Ola Aina rifled a shot into the top corner from the edge of the penalty arc to send the City Ground into raptures.
Things would have been worse for West Ham had Fabianksi not produced two spectacular late saves, and had the offside flag not ruled out Ryan Yates’ close-range finish.
Forest have now won three Premier League games in a row for the first time since May 1999.
Liverpool came from behind to beat Brighton at a rocking Anfield and go top of the Premier League on the day their two title rivals both suffered defeat.

But Cody Gakpo’s left-wing cross went straight into the net for Liverpool’s equaliser, his third goal against Albion in four days after his Carabao Cup double.
And Mohamed Salah curled a beauty into the far corner from the right side of the box to completely turn the game around three minutes later.

Gary O’Neil’s side came from behind to go ahead but could not hold on and have now failed to win any of their opening 10 games.
After a stale first half of limited chances, the game livened up when Trevoh Chalobah opened the scoring for the visitors, his low strike in the 67th minute following some poor defensive work from Wolves.
But Jorgen Strand Larsen cancelled that out when he slotted through Dean Henderson’s legs.
Joao Gomes then finished well from Goncalo Gomes’ low cross to give his side the lead before an unmarked Marc Guehi tapped home at the back post from a corner to draw Palace level.
Dominic Solanke scored twice as Tottenham came from behind to beat Aston Villa in the Premier League.
The £65m summer signing doubled his league goal tally for the season with two goals in four second-half minutes as Ange Postecoglou’s side climbed to seventh in the table.
Solanke put Spurs ahead with a delightful first by lifting the ball over the onrushing Emiliano Martinez from Dejan Kulusevski’s pass, before Richarlison picked out his team-mate to slot in and put a late fightback beyond Villa.
Morgan Rogers had given Villa the lead with the game’s first shot on target after 32 minutes, profiting after Spurs failed to deal with Lucas Digne’s in-swinging corner.
Moises Caicedo’s crisp volley gave Chelsea a deserved point against Manchester United at Old Trafford.
United’s interim manager Ruud van Nistelrooy, in charge while the Red Devils await the arrival of newly-appointed Ruben Amorim, looked on course for a second successive victory when Bruno Fernandes broke the deadlock from the spot in the 70th minute after Chelsea keeper Robert Sanchez brought down Rasmus Hojlund.
Van Nistelrooy celebrated wildly on the touchline but United’s elation lasted only four minutes until Caicedo expertly struck a superb shot past Andre Onana from the edge of the area.
Jobe Bellingham was sent off for a dangerous tackle as Championship leaders Sunderland drew 0-0 at Queens Park Rangers.
