Nottingham vs Everton Prediction, Odds & Betting Tips

Nottingham Forest's pursuit of Champions League football faces its next test when they welcome an Everton side mired in a six-game winless streak to the City Ground this Saturday.

Recent history between these clubs points to a tight affair—they've split their last six meetings evenly with two wins each—but the contrast in current form couldn't be starker as Nottingham Forest vs Everton shapes up to be a clash between European ambition and Premier League survival.

Nottingham vs. Everton preview

Nottingham Forest host Everton at the City Ground this Saturday with Champions League ambitions still flickering for Nuno Espírito Santo's men despite their recent 2-1 stumble against Aston Villa.

The Reds have been absolutely immense at home lately, going nine league matches unbeaten and gunning for a third straight win on their own patch, while David Moyes' Toffees seem stuck in a proper rut with six Premier League games without victory.

Forest fans will breathe a sigh of relief knowing key striker Chris Wood has shaken off his injury concerns - the same bloke who found the net when these sides last met in December's 2-0 Forest triumph at Goodison.

Everton's treatment room remains crowded with Calvert-Lewin, Lindstrøm, Mykolenko and Mangala all ruled out, leaving Beto and Ndiaye - who scored against Arsenal last time out - to lead their struggling attack.

The visitors' away form makes for grim reading, with no wins in their last three road trips, though they can take some comfort from a decent historical record at Forest where they haven't lost in their last four league visits.

Morgan Gibbs-White will be the man to watch for the hosts, having also scored in their December meeting and continuing to pull strings from his advanced midfield role.

With little at stake for mid-table Everton while Forest chase European football, there's a real sense the home side's motivation could prove decisive in what promises to be a tightly-contested affair.

Given the Reds' impressive home record and Everton's injury troubles, don't be shocked if Forest edge this one by the narrowest of margins, with the City Ground faithful potentially celebrating another step toward an unlikely Champions League dream.

Nottingham vs. Everton betting tips

Everton Double Chance (Win or Draw) (3/4)

Everton @ Nottingham

Everton have shown remarkable improvement since David Moyes returned to the dugout.

The Toffees have lost just two of their last twelve competitive matches, demonstrating newfound resilience.

Forest's form has dipped considerably with only three wins from their last ten games in normal time.

Everton's ability to grind out results makes them a solid bet to avoid defeat at the City Ground.

The visitors' tenacity and organization should help them secure at least a point against a struggling Forest side.

Draw 1-1 (6/1)

Everton @ Nottingham

Everton have become the Premier League's draw specialists with an impressive 14 stalemates this season.

Six of those draws have come in their last eight fixtures, highlighting their knack for sharing points.

The Toffees have specifically recorded 1-1 scorelines in four of their last five outings.

Nottingham Forest have been level at full-time in four of their last ten matches, suggesting they too have difficulty separating from opponents.

With both teams struggling to convert draws into victories, another 1-1 stalemate appears highly likely at the City Ground.

Chris Wood To Score Anytime (15/8)

Everton @ Nottingham

Chris Wood has been in scintillating form for Forest, netting 18 Premier League goals this campaign.

The New Zealand striker has been particularly lethal recently with eight strikes in his last eleven appearances.

Wood already found the net against Everton in the reverse fixture at Goodison Park earlier this season.

His expected return from injury provides a massive boost to Forest's attacking threat for this crucial match.

As Forest's primary goal threat, Wood will likely receive quality service against an Everton defence that has shown vulnerabilities.
