Aston Villa vs Nottingham Forest Preview & Prediction (15:00 KO)
Nottingham Forest are coming off a huge victory from their most recent league clash, beating West Ham 2-0 thanks to goals from Taiwo Awoniyi and Callum Hudson-Odoi.
The Midlands based side sacked Steve Cooper after a run of poor results and Nuno Espirito Santo has moved them four points away from the bottom three.
Forest travel to Villa Park in hopes of recreating their performance in the reverse fixture, as the Trees beat Villa 2-0 a the City Ground.
Aston Villa will be tough competition however, as the Villains are currently having one of the best season’s out of any Premier League side – sitting in the Champions League places.
Unai Emery’s men are also full of confidence from GW25 of the Premier League, beating Fulham 2-1 at Craven Cottage last time out.
Taking everything into consideration, we expect the hosts to have enough quality to win yet another game at home and should ease past Forest by two clear goals.
Prediction: Aston Villa 3-1 Nottingham Forest
Aston Villa vs Nottingham Forest Betting Tips
- John McGinn To Score @ 17/4
- Over 2.5 Goals @ 11/20
- Combined Bet Builder Odds @ 5/1
Aston Villa vs Nottingham Forest Betting Tip 1: John McGinn To Score @ 17/4
The Scottish international has played a huge role in Aston Villa’s success this season, contributing to eight goals in 25 Premier League matches (6G+2A).
Scoring one goal in his last three league matches, McGinn is still contributing to goals despite Aston Villa’s recent dip in form.
With that in mind, we expect the Aston Villa captain to be on target once again and is generously priced at 17/4 – perfect for this Premier League bet builder.
Aston Villa vs Nottingham Forest Betting Tip 2: Over 2.5 Goals @ 11/20
Aston Villa’s last five matches in all competitions have exceeded 2.5 goals, with the Villains also scoring nine in the process.
Six of Nottingham Forest’s last eight Premier League matches have gone over 2.5 goals and Nuno Espirito Santo’s side have conceded six goals in their last five matches (all competitions).
After evaluating the statistics, we believe the match is destined to go over 2.5 goals and this is mirrored by the price of 11/20 with BetMGM.
