Nottingham Forest vs West Ham Preview & Prediction
The visitors are coming off a crushing 6-0 defeat to Arsenal, as former club captain Declan Rice not only score for the Gunners but put in a stunning performance.
David Moyes has been put under increasing pressure, with many supporters pushing for a new manager – despite sitting 8th in the table and topping their Europa League group.
Lucas Paqueta’s injury has been a huge blow for the Hammers, winning just once from his 11 absences and the Brazilian is expected to miss out again on Saturday.
Nottingham Forest are also in a particularly tough spell, with their last Premier League win coming on December 30th 2023 against Manchester United.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s men were narrowly defeated by Newcastle last weekend and are just two points clear of the relegation places.
West Ham have won the previous two meetings (3-2 & 4-0), but we expect a tighter affair this time out and a draw seems the most likely outcome.
Prediction: Nottingham Forest 1-1 West Ham
Nottingham Forest vs West Ham Betting Tips
- Both Teams To Score @ 3/4
- Taiwo Awoniyi To Score @ 5/4
- Combined Bet Builder Odds: 2/1
Nottingham Forest vs West Ham Betting Tip 1: Both Teams To Score @ 3/4
The Hammers let in six goals last weekend and have now seen nine goals conceded in their last two games.
Nuno Espirito Santo’s side have seen both teams score in 10 of their last 11 matches (all competitions) and are coming off a 3-2 thriller against Newcastle.
With that in mind, we expect the defensive frailties of both sides to be very apparent and choosing both teams to score is a strong option.
Nottingham Forest vs West Ham Betting Tip 2: Taiwo Awoniyi To Score @ 5/4
The Nigerian has missed the majority of the season through injury, but scored on his return to the side against Arsenal last month.
In the 2022-23 season, Awoniyi scored in both Premier League fixtures against West Ham – scoring 10 goals on his debut season in England.
Upon evaluation, we expect the Nottingham Forest striker to be on target against the Hammers on Saturday and is a safe option at 5/4.
