Nottingham Forest – Manchester Utd

The rivals will exchange goals at least once in Nottingham

Last round, Erik ten Hag was indeed on the verge of being sacked. With the press and social media actively discussing the name of his possible successor, Manchester United conceded two unanswered goals from Aston Villa in the first half. It is not known what the coach said to his players at half-time, but in the second half of the game, there was a miracle in the form of three goals scored by the Mancunians and a willful victory. In addition, 19-year-old Garnacho became the youngest ever double scorer on Boxing Day, breaking Michael Owen's record, while Heylund netted his first Premier League goal. After such an emotional victory, the Red Devils will have to return to the hard work in Nottingham, where they are definitely not going to lose. "Foresters" by the results of the almost complete first round are located two points from the relegation zone, which leads to the need to gain points. Especially when it comes to a home game. Bookmakers are ahead of the guests as favourites for the upcoming meeting, offering odds of 2.20 on their victory. Nottingham Forest have only four wins in the current season. As is often the case with mediocre representatives of the Premier League, among the large number of defeats "Foresters" were victories over Chelsea, Newcastle and Aston Villa, which is in the top three teams in the championship. That said, there are far more problems than unexpected joys on Nottingham's agenda right now. In the last seven rounds, the Foresters have drawn and won once each, losing five matches to their opponents. Last round, the team sensationally dealt with a shabby Newcastle on his arena after the failure in the Champions League. The home side are well aware that they can also get results against MU. Manchester United just recently collapsed in the Champions League, finishing last in the company of Copenhagen and Galatasaray. In addition to this, the team has not the best position in the championship. Over the last month, the Mancunians won only two of the eight matches played, losing to Bournemouth at their arena with a score of 0:3, as well as West Ham away with a score of 0:2. The dramatic victory over Aston Villa is not able to rid the Mancunians of all the game problems. In this regard, we should expect them to concede goals in Nottingham.
