Nottingham Forest vs Newcastle – Betting Analysis
According to the statistics for their previous matches going back to September 20, 2011, there hasn’t been much of a difference between the teams, with Nottingham Forest winning three of them, Newcastle United winning three, and none of the games ending in a draw during regular time.
During this period, there were also a lot of goals tallied, 25 in total, for an average of 4.17 goals per game.
Steve Cooper of Nottingham Forest will be without Cheikhou Kouyaté (hamstring injury), Scott McKenna (hamstring injury), Willy Boly (hamstring injury), and Giulian Biancone (knee injury). It’s a good idea to have a backup plan in case something goes wrong.
Eddie Howe, the manager of Newcastle United, is worried about some players’ present fitness. The following players won’t be participating in this game: Emil Krafth (cruciate ligament rupture), Matty Longstaff (knee injury), Anthony Gordon (ankle injury), and Harrison Ashby (hamstring injury). Joelinton is ineligible for this encounter because of his suspension.
Nick Pope, Kieran Trippier, Fabian Schär, Sven Botman, Dan Burn, Joseph Willock, Bruno Guimares, Sean Longstaff, Jacob Murphy, Alexander Isak, and Allan Saint-Maximin are expected to start for the Magpies in a 4-3-3 formation.
We believe that against this Newcastle United team who we believe will score at least one goal, Nottingham Forest may find it challenging to find the back of the net throughout the game.
