Over 2.5 Goals & Calvert-Lewin to score
Nottingham Forest vs Everton Bet Builder: Over 2.5 Goals & Calvert-Lewin to score


Nottingham Forest vs Everton Preview & Prediction

Following the defeat to Manchester United, Everton are still searching for their first win since their 10-point deduction. With Luton Town and Bournemouth both picking up wins last weekend, it puts Everton back in jeopardy, who are now five points adrift of safety.

It was a case of ‘same old’ for Everton, who have wildly underperformed their expected goals (xG) this season, particularly at home. The Toffees accumulated 24 shots and an xG of 2.47 against United, but they never found a response to Alejandro Garnacho’s overhead kick that stunned the raucous Goodison crowd.

Nottingham Forest could be one of the times that Everton aims to reel into a relegation battle. Steve Cooper’s side are nine points above Everton as it stands, but they’ve hit a bit of a rut, winning just one of their last nine matches.

Forest were way below par in their defeat to Brighton last weekend and were fortunate to be allowed back into the game following Lewis Dunk’s peculiar sending-off.

Despite a receiving a vote of confidence from club owner Evangelos Marinakis, Cooper is starting to feel the pressure, and a win against struggling Everton seems like a must at this point.

Prediction: Nottingham Forest 2-2 Everton


Nottingham Forest vs Everton Betting Tips

  • Over 2.5 goals @ EVS
  • Dominic Calvert-Lewin to score @ 7/4
  • Combined Bet Builder Odds @ 13/5

Nottingham Forest vs Everton Betting Tip 1: Over 2.5 goals @ EVS

The price for there to be over 2.5 goals in the match is simply too good to turn down here. The bet has landed in 10 out of Everton’s 16 games across all competitions. That’s a success rate of 68%. When you factor in their dire need of wins following their deduction, they should be aggressive and goal-hungry from the off.

To further help our case, Forest have conceded three goals in each of their last two fixtures, including their recent visit to Anfield. In their last five matches, there have been an average of 3.8 goals in each game.

Anticipating a high-scoring affair, especially considering last season’s 2-2 draw between the two teams, goals should be plentiful in this one.

Nottingham Forest vs Everton Betting Tip 2: Dominic Calvert-Lewin to score @ 7/4

Following a goal-scoring spree in the autumn, Dominic Calvert-Lewin has now hit a dry spell. The striker scored four times in six appearances, but he hasn’t found the net since securing the match-winning goal at West Ham four games ago.

Despite his recent goal drought, it’s not due to a lack of effort. In the match against Manchester United, the England international took five shots and accumulated an xG of 0.59. This statistic is one of the reasons why we believe he has a good chance of rediscovering his scoring touch at the City Ground.
