Nottingham Forest vs Huddersfield Betting Tips and Predictions

The East Midlands club are now unbeaten in 13 matches and are starting to look like the real deal. Defensively they have become very solid as excellent 1-0 away wins at Middlesbrough and Leeds over the past month will testify.

They’ve not conceded a goal in over 400 minutes of Championship football although an attack-minded Huddersfield side will test their metal here. They haven’t lost in the league at the City Ground in over 4 months though and will be confident of extending that run here although they really need 3 points to continue their climb towards the top six which is still 8 points off as we speak.

Huddersfield come into the game following 4 consecutive defeats and they’ve let in 12 goals in those games. Given that Forest look really good value for the win at 5/4.

The Terriers are still 7 points clear of the drop-zone after a good run around the festive period under new boss David Wagner. Only 5 teams in the division have scored more goals than them but defensively they do look really fragile at times and Forest should get more than enough chances to win the game.

If you are looking for a correct score bet it is certainly worth noting that Huddersfield have scored in all of their last 14 matches and both teams have netted in all of their last 5. Forest don’t tend to be involved in high-scoring games though so we may not see a flurry of goals here but a 2-1 home win looks a real possibility and can be backed at 8/1.
