Now back in Northern Ireland he turns niche stats into predictions for FST, while he's one of the few people on this island who is equally comfortable at Windsor Park and the Aviva.
The Premier League returns from the international break on Saturday afternoon, as Ange Postecoglou makes a swift return to North London as Nottingham Forest’s new manager.
I’ve backed an entertaining clash at the Emirates, but below I’ve looked into some other player markets to produce a huge 73/1 Ultimate Bet Builder. This tip has been priced up with Paddy Power, who have a brilliant offer for new customers below.
Arsenal vs Forest Ultimate Bet Builder
Viktor Gyokeres to score anytime
Gyokeres made an impression in his first game at the Emirates, scoring twice in a 5-0 victory against Leeds. The striker has made his mark at home throughout his career, including 37 goals in 32 home games for Sporting across two seasons in the Primeira Liga.
The Swede scored just shy of one in two at home for Coventry in his breakout spell there, so he’s worth getting behind whenever he features at the Emirates.
The Gunners’ summer spending has left them with plenty of midfield depth, so expect plenty of support for Gyokeres this weekend. The likes of Martin Odegaard and Eberechi Eze should generate chances for the forward, so back him to score.
Elliot Anderson 1+ shot on target
Anderson had an impressive international break with England, so he should return to the Nottingham Forest midfield with plenty of confidence. That confidence should be shared by new manager Postecoglou, who will be aiming to push his central midfielders higher up the pitch.
Anderson has one shot on target from four attempts this term, while he also had a shot in both games with England, getting one effort on target. That experience, paired with a more adventurous manager in charge of his club side, should spur Anderson on. Back him to have a shot on target in Saturday’s clash.
Nikola Milenkovic 2+ fouls
While Postecoglou has arrived to take Forest on to the next level, his new squad isn’t primed for his style of football. It’s hard to imagine Milenkovic losing his place under the new boss, but the Serbian’s lack of pace was exposed against England in midweek.
Given Postecoglou’s infamous high-line, the usually disciplined Milenkovic stands out in the foul markets. He made three fouls across two games for Serbia, getting sent off in the 5-0 loss to England, so back him to make a couple of fouls as he adjusts to a very different style of play.
Morgan Gibbs-White to be carded
Gibbs-White had a discipline problem last season, despite playing as a true number 10. He picked up nine bookings and a red across the previous Premier League campaign.
The intensity is set to be turned up on Forest’s press, with Gibbs-White expected to play in a slightly deeper role, given Postecoglou’s favouring of a 4-3-3 shape over their usual 4-2-3-1. Given his issue with cautions, back Gibbs-White to pick up a card this weekend.
