Nottingham Forest vs Man City Predictions and Top Betting Tips

Nottingham have been quite impressive lately and we expect a massive game. Here are our Nottingham Forest vs Man City predictions.

Both Teams To Score Prediction: No

A few weeks ago, we would have definitely believed that Nottingham will score a goal but the team seems to be playing well only against weaker opposition. As soon as they faced a stronger team like Man United, they crumbled. Man City may not be at their best still but we think that they will not afford mistakes in such a game after beating Arsenal.

Team To Score in Both Halves Prediction: Man City

We expect to see goals from Manchester City and at least one per half. This is a team that loves attacking from minute one and Pep Guardiola is a manager that enjoys winning his games early. He prefers to win the match ahead of time and rest his key players. So we definitely expect them to score in the first half and then the second.

Correct Score Prediction: 0-3 to Man City

We think that Man City will win this game without conceding a goal and three goals seem like a good option here. Nottingham has definitely been impressive at home lately but we did not see much against top opposition. City should be able to beat them even with the second squad.

Nottingham Forest vs Man City: Form, Recent Games, and News

Nottingham Forest Preview

It seems that Nottingham Forest are on their way to the Championship once again. The team overdid it on the transfer market and attacked something like 25 new players, some very solid ones. But this is not enough to make a good team. It took them half a season to start showing signs of improvement but right now, they seem quite impressive and we may actually see Nottingham survive this season and remain in the PL.

Their fleeting moments of goodwill have been followed by stretches of despair. After going five matches unbeaten, they were put on their backside by Fulham. It was a 2-0 humbling at Craven Cottage and at City Ground, they will want a better showing from themselves. Their issues have been exacerbated by top-scorer Taiwo Awoniyi's injury. As a consequence, all eyes will be on Morgan Gibbs-White, not just to create but also to get on the scoreboard.

Man City Preview

Manchester City are now 3 points behind Arsenal and cannot afford to drop more points. However, their schedule is incredibly difficult and the team will almost certainly lose points with the current problems we see. They often have difficulties scoring goals and the most recent example was the game against Tottenham. But City managed to destroy Arsenal in the last round and even took over the top of the table.

They will fancy their chances against the league strugglers who are in the bottom half of the table. Pep Guardiola's men are close to completion. While the going gets good for the Citizens, qualms about top-scorer Erling Haaland needs to be squashed as well. The Norwegian has raced to 26 goals and is enjoying in the company of Phil Foden and Kevin de Bruyne. With Arsenal stuttering and Manchester United firing on all cylinders, the maker is on City's back to live up to their reputation.
