Tip and bets

1.79Nottingham Forest won't lose

Aston Villa is on a seven-game winning streak, playing on home turf today and receiving the status of the favorite from the bookmakers. It will obviously be difficult for the hosts to achieve another victory. They have too difficult an opponent today, who is also on the move right now, on a six-match winless streak in all tournaments. Obviously, the Birmingham team will play the first number as hosts, which is very convenient for the foresters. More than once during the season, Nottingham Forest demonstrated the ability to clearly act from the opponent, on the counterattack, and at the same time block all approaches to their penalty area. We believe that the guests will be able to score at least one point in Birmingham.

Our betting tip is that Nottingham Forest will not lose by a factor of 1.79

1.9Aston Villa's goal tally is less than 1.5

Bet on the total

When choosing a total bet, we rely on the guests and their ability to work reliably in defense. In the last six matches in all competitions, Nottingham Forest only conceded two goals in the game against Ipswich, but they confidently led the score there and won 4-2. We do not think that Aston Villa will be able to crack the well-organized opponent's defense twice.

The second bet is Aston Villa's individual goal total of less than 1.5 with a coefficient of 1.90

A bet on yellow cards

In only two of the last eight away matches in the Premier League, Nottingham Forest players received more than two points. Based on this trend, we recommend another option for a reliable and confident bet based on statistics.

Betting Tip – the total number of Nottingham Forest yellow cards is less than 2.5 with a coefficient of 1.72
