Nottingham Forest vs Newcastle: English League Cup Prediction
In the 1/32 finals of the English League Cup on August 28, two clubs from the Premier League, Nottingham Forest and Newcastle, will play. Both teams have high-class players in their squads. Who will fly out of the competition at such an early stage? We will try to answer this question in our betting tip
Command Analysis
Nottingham Forest
EnglandCurrent form
Nottingham Forest spent heavily on strengthening their squad last season but still struggled to survive, finishing 17th, six points clear of relegated Luton Town. They have started well this season, drawing 1-1 with Bournemouth in the opening round before beating Southampton, who have returned to the Premier League, 1-0 away.
In transfer news, we note that negotiations regarding the transfer of Paraguayan striker Ramon Sosa to the Foresters have been successfully completed. Alex Moreno has also been loaned from Aston Villa.
Disqualifications and injuries
There are no losses in the hosts' squad before the upcoming match.
Interesting trends for betting
- Nottingham Forest have lost 12 of their last 15 matches on corners.
- The Foresters have drawn three of their last five home matches.
Probable lineup : Sels - Williams, Boli, Murillo, Aina - Danilo, Sangare - Elanga, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi - Wood
Newcastle United
EnglandCurrent form
Newcastle had a mixed season last season. One of the most ambitious clubs in the Premier League finished the championship in only seventh place and did not qualify for European competition. This time, the Magpies will try to return to the European arena. Like today's opponents, United started the season with matches against Southampton and Bournemouth and completely repeated the results of Nottingham - a 1-0 victory over the Saints and a 1-1 draw with the Cherries.
Disqualifications and injuries
Wilson, Botman, Lascelles, Miley, Targett are injured. Tonali continues to serve his disqualification.
Interesting trends for betting
- Newcastle have avoided defeat in their last four matches.
- The Magpies have kept clean sheets in three of their last four matches.
Probable lineup : Pope - Trippier, Scher, Burn, Hall - Guimaraes, Longstaff, Joelinton - Murphy, Isak, Gordon
Trends
Bet Exact score 0:1
The visitors have won their last two games with this score.
10.00Bet At least one team will not score
This bet has played in four of the last five away matches
2.35Bet Number 1 in the final score
This pattern has worked in Newcastle's last three matches
1.70Tip and bets
Both teams have been playing a pragmatic game at the start of the season, not scoring more than one goal per game. The same trend is likely to continue in the cup match between the rivals. In addition, it is unlikely that the Premier League clubs will field all their key players for the League Cup match.
Our prediction is total under 2.5 goals for 2.25
Bet on the outcome
The teams started the season with absolutely identical results, but last season the visitors performed much better, and Newcastle has a stronger squad. We believe that the visitors will win by a minimum in this match.
The second bet is Newcastle to win with odds of 2.12
Bet on the first half
We think that the visitors will have a certain advantage and will carry out many flank attacks, which will allow them to beat their opponents in corners.
Betting Tip - Asian handicap (-1.5) on Newcastle for corners with odds of 2.03
