Everton vs Nottingham Forest Betting Odds, Tips, Predictions, Preview 20th August 2022
After surviving a gruelling battle for survival last season, Everton hope to start the new Premier League campaign on a positive note. The hosts play Nottingham Forest at Goodison Park in a round three fixture on Saturday. This is the first time Everton squares up against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League, thus both face a whole new experience of coming up against an unknown opponent.
Everton have nothing to show for the first couple of matches in the Premier League and going into this round three they will be eager to get off the mark. We have seen both sides of Nottingham Forest already, as they opened up the new campaign with three points to show from their efforts in round one and two. At Goodison Park they will be turned on by the prospect of celebrating a second win with their supporters.
We are bound to see an exciting game this coming Saturday as both Everton and Nottingham Forest are looking to add some much-needed points to their respective accounts.
Everton scored 11 goals, conceded 17 and fought their way to two clean sheets in their previous ten matches.
Nottingham Forest average 0.5 goals a game in their last two outings, scoring a total of one goal. They conceded an average of one per game, for a total of two goals, whilst keeping their opponents from scoring once.
Everton vs Nottingham Forest Prediction
Everton endured a tough spell in their previous three matches, which brought three defeats. They lost 5-1 against Arsenal, before Chelsea won 0-1, while Aston Villa claimed all three points in a 2-1 win. Everton claimed a middle-of-the-road three wins in their previous six matches on home soil in the Premier League. They also drew one and lost two, as they scored eight and conceded seven goals.
A top half finish is the dream for Everton, but neutral spectators have them down for a season in the lower end of the Premier League.
Their past three matches saw Nottingham Forest beating Huddersfield 0-1, losing 2-0 against Newcastle, and beating West Ham by 1-0.
It has the look of a season in which a relegation battle will play a major part for Nottingham Forest, who naturally dream of extending their stay in the Premier League.
Everton need the support of their home crowd at Goodison Park after suffering defeat twice in recent matches. We fancy them to rise to the occasion and claim a win.
