Nottingham Forest - Everton predictions

Nottingham Forest might be heading into this game as firm favourites to get a win but they will have their work cut out for them as Everton are known to be highly unpredictable and capable of pulling a surprise when it is least expected.

It would be a minor miracle for The Toffees to win at team from Nottingham, and they’re likely aware of that. Though risky, such an outcome could bring solid profits thanks to the 3.70 price on most online sportsbooks.

team from Nottingham went behind in the first half of their last Premier League clash. Playing away against a tough rival is never easy and Forest can even count themselves lucky to return home with a narrow Aston Villa defeat.

Everton barely managed to avoid a loss in their previous home game. Their opponents, Arsenal, were seen as hard favourites in that matchup and snatched an early lead. Luckily, Everton equalized, and the game ended 1:1.

Forest’s recent Premier League away games were marked by a lot of concessions – 8 over the last 3 matches, to be exact. Therefore, betting on goals might be a fairly reasonable option here.

A successful Over 2.5 Goals bet seems very unlikely, based on Everton’s previous performance. None of their 5 most recent Premier League matches featured more than 2 goals.

Placed number 3rd in the standings, the hosts are still in the runnings for the Premier League title. Getting the 16 points they need to get to first place is easier said than done, however.

These two teams already clashed this season, and Forest walked away with a solid away win. It was fairly narrow, though, giving Everton supporters some hope for this game despite the unfavourable matchup.

Taiwo Awoniyi, Anthony Elanga, Chris Wood will all have to sit this one out due to injuries, leaving the home team’s lineup in a weakened state. They still have an advantage according to betting prices, but it may not be as notable as it would have been otherwise.

A confirmed Under 2.5 Goals market seems like a foregone conclusion for this particular match. The only thing to do now is to decide whether the relatively short 1.60 odds are worth your time. We would say they are because this bet manages to have real betting value as well.
