It’s a battle between two teams near the bottom of the league this weekend as Leeds travel to face Nottingham Forest. Leeds are in 16th place with Forest second bottom of the pile.
Forest have slightly picked up in recent weeks under new manager Sean Dyche. They have lost just one of their last four, with three draws and one win in that time. They’ve still only won one game in the league this season.
Leeds have lost three of their last four, with their one victory in that time coming at home against West Ham United – a 2-1 victory for the Whites.
Nottingham Forest vs Leeds Bet Builder Tip
Nottingham Forest vs Leeds Bet Builder Predictions
- Nottingham Forest to win (13/10)
- Dominic Calvert-Lewin over 0.5 shots on target (4/7)
- Morgan Gibbs-White over 0.5 shots on target (9/10)
- Ethan Ampadu to be carded (12/5)
BEST BET BUILDER TIP – Nottingham Forest to win (13/10)
It’s a bold prediction this one – backing a team who have won only one league game this season to win – but I fancy Forest here. They have been better in the last few weeks, despite having only one win in four – a 2-0 victory over Porto. They have lost just one in four under Sean Dyche, and have definitely been more resolute in defence with two clean sheets in that time. Leeds have won just two in 10, and I think Forest will come out on top at home.
Dominic Calvert-Lewin over 0.5 shots on target (4/7)
He has scored only one goal this season, but Leeds striker Calvert-Lewin is a good shout to have at least one shot on target. In his eight league appearances, he has had 15 shots, seven of which have been on target, giving him an average of just under one per game. In a game between two teams fighting near the bottom, I think both teams will go for it, leaving gaps at the back, and he will have one or more attempts on target.
Morgan Gibbs-White over 0.5 shots on target (9/10)
Morgan Gibbs-White is a key player for Forest. The midfielder has scored twice this season – once in the league and once in the Europa League. He has had 22 shots, but only five on target in 10 league appearances. In the Europa League, he has a better shot on target rate with four in four. He’s taken two of Forest’s four penalties this season, so there’s a good chance if they get one here he will take it.
ALTERNATIVE BET – Morgan Gibbs-White to score @ 17/5
He’s only scored two goals this season, but if you want to boost the odds of this bet builder, you can get him at 17/5 with BetMGM. He will be in the thick of Forest’s attacks, and has a chance of scoring against a Leeds side who have conceded 17 goals this season.
Ethan Ampadu to be carded (12/5)
12/5 is a great price for Ethan Ampadu to be booked. The Welsh defender has picked up three yellow cards in eight league appearances this season, making 13 fouls, an average of more than 1.5 per game. He has also been carded once for Wales in their World Cup qualifying campaign. I think he’s great odds to pick up another booking here.
