Betting on Nottingham Forest
After so many years in the second division, the main objective of a historic club like Nottingham Forest for this campaign is more than clear: to keep the category. Still, and after a terrible start to the season, the team seems to have found the way to do just that. With 25 points, Forest enters this matchday positioned in the 13th place in the standings, but only four points above the relegation zone.
Forest failed to build on a huge 1-1 draw at home to Manchester City a few weeks back, as it fell 4-0 to West Ham and added a third match without a win to its negative record.
However, this will be a great opportunity for the team to return to its winning ways, not only because of its opponents, but also because of the performance it has shown at home recently. In fact, the team arrives to this match in the midst of an eight-game unbeaten streak at home, in which it managed to pick up points against teams like Liverpool, Chelsea and the aforementioned Man City.
Probable lineup (4-2-3-1): Keylor Navas; Neco Williams, Felipe, Joe Worrall, Renan Lodi; Jonjo Shelvey, Remo Freuler; Brennan Johnson, Morgan Gibbs-White, Gustavo Scarpa; Chris Wood.
Betting on Everton
Meanwhile, Everton slipped back into the relegation zone after losing 4-0 in midweek in its postponed match against Arsenal to record a second defeat in a row, both without a goal and conceding a total of six goals. Those offensive problems have been a headache for Everton all year round, being the worst team in the league in that aspect with only 17 goals scored.
That low offensive production has resulted in only one team scoring in the last six league matches of the “Toffees”. Therefore, whoever opens the scoring in this match will have a great chance of winning.
Going on the road only makes matters worse for Everton, which has lost without scoring in its last two away league appearances, and which has not won in that capacity since December 15, 2022. The team records eight defeats and two draws in all competitions.
Probable lineup (4-5-1): Jordan Pickford; Séamus Coleman, Conor Coady, James Tarkowski, Vitaliy Mykolenko; Alex Iwobi, Abdoulaye Doucouré, Idrissa Gueye, Amadou Onana, Dwight McNeil; Neal Maupay.
JefeBet Prediction
Everton’s offensive problems are serious, so the team may not even be able to exploit the defensive frailties of a Nottingham side that is one of the highest scoring teams in the Championship, with 42 goals conceded in 24 games played.
However, it should not be forgotten that Forest is not an attacking team either, having scored just one more goal than Everton, making it, along with Wolves, the second-worst team in the league in attack.
We anticipate a closely contested match, given the weak offensive capabilities of both teams, with many mistakes being made in both defense and attack, which is likely to give way to a low-scoring game overall.
Prediction: Under (NOT 1-0 EVE).
