Premier League preview: Nottingham Forest vs Man Utd

Nottingham Forest have won six of their last eight home matches, and they’re currently priced at 27/20 to make it another City Ground success against Manchester United. With recent home scalps including a 1-0 win over Manchester City and a 7-0 demolition of Brighton, Forest have been in formidable form in front of their own fans.

Their 2-1 win over United back in December adds to that sense of momentum. Manchester United, meanwhile, have had a turbulent campaign and arrive mid-table, trailing Forest by a notable points margin.

Goals Flow in This Fixture

There have been over 2.5 goals in four of Nottingham Forest’s last five matches against Manchester United, and that market is currently priced at 10/11. The previous meeting at Old Trafford this season ended 3-2 to Forest, with both teams showing attacking flair but leaving space at the back.

With United conceding 40 goals this season, some punters might see potential value in another goal-filled clash.

Manchester United’s Scoring Struggles

Manchester United are 41/20 to score under 0.5 goals, which might interest some given their erratic scoring form.

Although they netted three against Leicester last time out, United have also drawn blanks against Crystal Palace, Bournemouth, and Wolves since the turn of the year. They’ve been anything but consistent in the final third, and the price reflects the potential for another misfiring performance.

History Suggests Both Could Score

Both teams have scored in three of the last four clashes between these sides, and the ‘Yes’ option in the BTTS market is available at 7/10. With United conceding in all but two of their last ten league games, and Forest hitting the net regularly at home, there could be interest here.

As the odds are below 1.50, readers must decide if there’s sufficient value in this selection.
