Nottingham Forest vs Newcastle Predictions

  • Nottingham Forest are unbeaten in nine Premier League games at The City Ground.
  • Newcastle have won just two of their last nine league matches.
  • Brennan Johnson has scored five of Nottingham Forest’s last six goals at The City Ground.

Home form props Forest up

Nottingham Forest’s winless run stretched to five games as they lost at Tottenham last weekend but their form at The City Ground suggests they might be able to upset the odds on Friday.

Steve Cooper’s side have picked up 20 of their 26 points on home soil this season and head into this game unbeaten in nine Premier League home games, although an abundance of draws does still leave them within touching distance of the relegation zone.

It has not been an easy run for them, either, but they have taken points from Liverpool, Chelsea and Manchester City in this sequence of unbeaten home games and should feel confident about their chances on Friday.

Magpies struggle to score

Newcastle snapped their own five-game winless streak last time out against Wolves to leave them four points shy of the top four with two games in hand on fourth-placed Tottenham, but a continuation of this return to form is needed for Eddie Howe’s men.

The Magpies have won just two of their last nine in the Premier League and are without a league win on the road since Boxing Day, with them scoring just one goal in the four trips since that win over Leicester.

Draw specialists set for stalemate at The City Ground

Despite this, the visitors are odds-on favourites for the win, making a Nottingham Forest double chance stand out from a betting perspective.

All being told, I expect the spoils to be shared at The City Ground. Forest have drawn five of their last nine at home in the Premier League and three of these have been 1-1 affairs, while Newcastle have also drawn five of their last nine league games and have played out two 1-1 draws in this time, so that’s my pick for a correct score prediction.

Brennan Johnson stands out as an anytime goalscorer option, provided the Forest striker is fit. The 21-year-old has scored six of his seven top-flight goals at The City Ground and has netted five of his side’s last six home goals.
