Our Newcastle United vs Nottingham Forest Prediction Sees Magpies Soar to Three Points

Newcastle to Heap More Misery on Ange

Newcastle have been slow out of the blocks this season, winning just one of their opening six Premier League matches. Last weekend, the Magpies conceded two late goals to lose 2-1 at home to Arsenal.

Eddie Howe’s men bounced back with an emphatic midweek win in the UEFA Champions League. Goals from Anthony Gordon (2), Nick Woltemade, and Harvey Barnes gave United a 4-0 victory at Union Saint Gilloise.

Nottingham Forest have endured a miserable season so far, failing to win in any competition since the opening weekend of the Premier League season. Since Postecoglou took over from the sacked Nuno Espirito Santo, the Reds have lost four and drawn two of six.

Midtjylland heaped more pressure on with a win at the City Ground in the UEFA Europa League on Thursday night. The Danish side were a threat throughout, and Valdemar Byskov’s goal two minutes from time proved to be the winner.

Newcastle United vs Nottingham Forest Betting Odds

Newcastle have beaten Bradford City and Wolverhampton Wanderers at St James’ Park this term, and the home team are the clear favourites in this one. You can get 1.58 for a Magpies win.

Out-of-sorts Forest are the big underdogs in Tyneside. The away win is available at 5.40, while the draw is priced at 4.10. The Reds are looking for their first away win since May.
