Nottingham Forest Betting Preview

Nottingham Forest currently sits in 13th place in the standings having picked up 25 points so far this season. Last Saturday Nottingham Forest faced off against West Ham United, and they were defeated 4-0. Nottingham Forest had 51 percent of the possession and three shots on target, but they couldn’t find the back of the net. Nottingham Forest is dealing with some major injury issues heading into this game. Scott McKenna, Willy Boly, and Moussa Niakhate are dealing with long term injury issues and they aren’t going to be able to go in this game. Joe Worrall will move into the starting lineup for this game. 

Everton Betting Preview

On the other side of this matchup is Everton who sts in 18th place in the standings having picked up 21 points. Everton needs to pick up some points or they won’t be playing in the Premier League next season. Everton faced off against Arsenal in the last game and the defense was awful giving up four goals. The offense also couldn’t get anything going, and is going to need to be better here. Dominic Calvert-Lewin ls still banged up and it’s not expected that he’s going to be able to go in this game. 

Shane’s Free Pick

Goals are going to be hard to come by in this game. Everton’s offense has been an issue heading into this game, but I do expect their defense is going to step up, and that will be the difference here. There might be one goal scored, but there won’t be more than that, and this game is going to be lower scoring. Back the under 1.5 goals to cash here.
