Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool Prediction, Odds and Betting Tips

🏆 Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool: Who Will Win?

Nottingham Forest have spent a lot of money after their promotion to the EPL a couple of seasons back, and it looks like their spending spree could come back to bite them as they are now in with a chance of being hit with a points deduction, which would all but relegate them back to the Championship. They are currently sitting 16th in the league table with 24 points to their name, and a four-point cushion on the Relegation Zone. However, their form has seen them pick up just ten points from their previous ten matches.

Liverpool picked up the Carabao Cup by beating Chelsea in extra-time on Sunday evening, so they will be buoyed heading into this match against a struggling Nottingham Forest. Liverpool are top of the table by one point, so they know that they cannot afford any slip-ups between now and the end of the season in May. They have picked up 23 points from the last 30 that have been on offer, so their form is not something that they need to worry about.

Although Liverpool have a host of injuries, I see nothing but a win for the away side in this match. They are a better outfit than Forest and should have enough to get the job done. I think that they will run out 3-1 winners in the end.

💯 Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool Match Odds

When these two sides met in the reverse fixture last October at Anfield, Liverpool walked away with a comfortable 3-0 win. Liverpool completely dominated that match with eight shots on target to Forest's one, while they also had a staggering 73% of the ball.

How has this previous encounter and both teams' current form altered the popular football betting markets that are being offered by some quality established and new UK betting sites? The answers to such a question can be revealed in the following tables.

Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool: Match Winner Odds

To anyone with an ounce of football knowledge, it will not come as much of a surprise to see that Liverpool are the big favourites with the bookies. Not only do they have a better squad than their opponents, but they are also in much better form. Forest might cause Liverpool a few issues because of their injury list, but it should not be enough to see Liverpool drop points. Below are the match odds that are on offer for this Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool match:

Team
Nottingham Forest	5.15	5.15	5.50	6.00	6.00
Draw	4.55	4.55	4.50	4.70	4.70
Liverpool	1.48	1.48	1.53	1.48	1.49

Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool: Both Teams To Score Odds

The bookmakers that I have chosen to recommend to you are pretty adamant that both teams will manage to score in this match. If Liverpool were at full strength, then I reckon the odds for BTTS would be longer, but they will likely have to play a few kids like they did in the Carabao Cup final. If you enjoy betting on this market, then check out the BTTS odds in the following table:

Team
Yes	1.50	1.50	1.53	1.57	1.63
No	2.36	2.36	2.35	2.15	2.20

Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool: Over/Under 2.5 Goals Odds

The bookies are also pretty sure that there will be three goals in this match, while also being fewer than four. Since they have Jurgen Klopp's men as the favourites and are certain that both teams will score, the odds for this market tell us that they believe that Liverpool will go on to win the match 2-1. If you like to bet on the over/under 2.5 goals market, then below are the current odds on offer:

Team
Over 2.5	1.42	1.42	1.45	1.44	1.48
Under 2.5	2.58	2.58	2.70	2.55	2.65

Nottingham Forest Update

Nottingham Forest will likely finish above the Relegation Zone as there are at least three worse teams than them in the league. However, it is also very likely that they will suffer a points deduction for breaking financial rules, which would probably relegate them to the Championship.

They have only won six matches all season, and they probably need to win at least another six if they are to stay up after a potential points deduction. Things were looking rosy when they beat Newcastle United and Manchester United back-to-back, but things have tailed off since then. Below are their previous five results in the league:

Nuno Espirito Santo has five injured players out of this Liverpool clash, and you can see these missing players in the following table:

2️⃣Liverpool Update

Liverpool are hoping to give Klopp the best possible send-off as his time as Liverpool manager will come to an end at the close of the season. They took their first step in doing exactly this on Sunday by winning the Carabao Cup against Chelsea.

Now they will turn their attention back to the league and know that any slip-up will be pounced upon by Manchester City and Arsenal. They have lost just the two league matches all season, against Spurs and Arsenal, and I do not see them dropping points here. Below you can see their previous five league results:

Klopp has a huge injury list that he will need to take into consideration when selecting his starting XI for this match, and you can see all of their missing players in the table below:
