Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal Predictions, Betting Tips and Preview

FA Cup betting tips

Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal predictions and betting tips for the FA Cup fixture on Sunday afternoon. Can the Gunners continue their excellent form in this competition?

Nottingham Forest are without a manager following the sacking of Mark Warburton at the end of December. Gary Brazil takes temporary charge once again with names such as Paul Heckingbottom and Aitor Karanka strongly linked to the vacancy. Forest have struggled in front of goal in recent weeks although they were much improved against Leeds during their goalless draw on New Years Day. Arsenal come off the back of a 2-2 draw with Chelsea with their defence suspect once again. The Gunners will make a number of changes for this tie and expect to see some fringe players getting valuable game time. See our Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal predictions below and see if we fancy Nottingham Forest to upset the Premier League side.

 

Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal Predictions

Questions remain over Arsenal’s defence who struggle to keep clean sheets on the road. They have also netted just 13 times on their travels and this could be a potentially tricky tie for Arsene Wenger’s side. Forest are a young side and have some very talented players although their form has dipped of late and Mark Warburton paid the price. Two months ago, I may have predicted Forest to get something from this tie but Arsenal should prevail with a number of chances at both ends. The first of this weekend’s Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal predictions is Arsenal to Win and Over 2.5 Goals

 

Anytime Goalscorer Tips

Danny Welbeck is just one of the many players who are likely to get a run out here. He netted during the club’s successful run in the competition last season and he is the likeliest to find a way through here. The second of our Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal predictions is for Danny Welbeck to score anytime. .

 

Goals Predictions

Arsenal won 4-0 here in the League Cup last season and although Forest should be able to get on the scoresheet this time around, it could be an equally high-scoring game. For our final Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal prediction, we’re looking at Over 3.5 Goals.

 

Nottingham Forest vs Arsenal Preview

Nottingham Forest are unlikely to have a manager in place in time for this fixture so Gary Brazil remains in charge. He decided to start Daryl Murphy for the match against Leeds but the veteran striker missed a number of chances. The caretaker boss is unlikely to make too many changes from that encouraging performance.

Arsenal are without the injured Granit Xhaka, Olivier Giroud and Aaron Ramsey for this game. Wenger is likely to pick Alex Iwobi, Danny Welbeck, Mohamed Elneny, Per Mertesacker and David Ospina for this one.
