Hojlund To Score & Over 2.5 Goals
Nottingham Forest vs Manchester United Preview & Prediction
The hosts ended a streak of seven matches in GW19, as Nuno Espirito Santo’s side beat Newcastle 3-1 at St James Park.
Chris Wood scored a hat-trick against his former side, as the New Zealand international took his goal tally to six in the Premier League.
Nottingham Forest are currently in 16th in the table and are just two points clear of the relegation zone, meaning a win on Saturday evening is crucial.
Manchester United are also coming off a huge win, coming back from 2-0 down to beat Aston Villa 3-2 at Old Trafford – thanks to a Alejandro Garnacho brace and Rasmus Hojlund’s first league goal.
Erik ten Hag had been under huge scrutiny after four matches without a win and United had not scored a goal in any of these matches.
With this in mind, we expect this to be a tight affair at the City Ground, but the visitors should pick up a crucial win on their travels.
Prediction: Nottingham Forest 1-2 Manchester United
Nottingham Forest vs Manchester United Betting Tips
- Rasmus Hojlund To Score @ 19/10
- Over 2.5 Goals @ 3/4
- Combined Bet Builder Odds @ 5/2
Nottingham Forest vs Manchester United Betting Tip 1: Rasmus Hojlund To Score @ 19/10
The Danish striker had been heavily criticised for his goal scoring rut in the Premier League, as he failed to score in his first 14 appearances.
Hojlund scored his first Premier League goal against Aston Villa last time out and added to his five Champions League goals.
After breaking his duct, we expect the former Atalanta striker to be on target once again on Saturday and at 19/10 is a strong selection for this bet builder.
Nottingham Forest vs Manchester United Betting Tip 2: Over 2.5 Goals @ 3/4
Nottingham Forest’s last five matches have seen at least two goals and three of these fixtures have gone over 2.5 goals – including their most recent win against Newcastle.
Three of Manchester United’s last three Premier League matches have seen at least two goals, including the 3-2 win over Nottingham Forest.
Taking this recent record into consideration, we expect this match to go over 2.5 goals and is a safe option for your Premier League bets.
