Nottingham Forest Sheffield Wednesday betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

A game that is expected to be very closed and with few goal chances. Both Nottingham Forest and Sheffield Wednesday have low quality attacks at the time of finishing and in this game they should act in a more cautious way. It should be noted that the home club scored an average of 0.89 goals per game and Sheffield Wednesday shot an average of 0.56 goals per match in these conditions. In this way, and similarly to previous days, risking in favor of the "Under 2.5 Goals" market is a good option.

Analysis Nottm Forest

The home team is currently in the 21th position of the league, with 13 points won, after 3 wins, 4 draws and 11 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Norwich City, by (2‑1). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Brentford, by (1‑3). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 1 win, 5 draws and 9 losses in away matches, with 8 goals scored and 20 conceded; against 4 wins, 4 draws and 7 losses at their stadium, with 15 goals scored and 22 conceded. For the league, Nottingham Forest won 9 points out of 27 possible points, after 2 wins, 3 draws and 4 losses in the last 9 home matches. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. This is a team that has had a hard time trying to score first. They have opened up the score in only 3 of the last 18 matches for the Championship, they have reached half‑time in front in 2 of those 3 matches and held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in all of them. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 14 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Nottingham Forest comes for this match after a defeat, by 1-3, against Brentford, adding the third defeat in this second English division: the only goal of the team was scored by Joe Worrall. In this match against Sheffield Wednesday, the coach Chris Hughton should keep the team in 4-3-3 with Joe Lolley, Sammy Ameobi and Lyle Taylor as the most advanced men of the home team: the last athlete mentioned is the best scorer in Nottingham Forest with 4 goals scored. For this match the home team does not have Anthony Knockaert, punished, as well as Jack Colback, Lewis Grabban, Luke Freeman, Tyler Blackett and Fouad Bachirou, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Brice Samba, Joe Worrall, Yuri Ribeiro, Cyrus Christie, Cafú, Samba Sow, Sammy Ameobi, Ryan Yates, Loïc Mbe Soh, Alex Mighten, Lyle Taylor.

Analysis Sheff Wed

The away team is currently in the 24th position of the league, with 9 points won, after 3 wins, 6 draws and 9 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Huddersfield Town, by (2‑0). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Barnsley, by (1‑2). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 3 draws and 8 losses in away matches, with 13 goals scored and 19 conceded; against 1 win, 7 draws and 7 losses at their stadium, with 8 goals scored and 17 conceded. In the last 9 away league matches Sheffield Wednesday has a record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 6 losses, so they have won 7 points out of 27 possible.

In this competition, they haven’t won any of the last 12 matches. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (4 out of 9 matches). Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Sheffield Wednesday enters this journey after a defeat, by 1-2, against Barnsley, thus adding the second defeat followed in this competition: the only goal of the team was scored by Josh Windass. For playing away from home, the coach Tony Pulis should keep a team farther back, waiting for the opponent in their defensive midfield. The striker Josh Windass is the highlight of this Sheffield Wednesday team, who is the team's top scorer with 3 goals scored. For this game, the visiting team cannot count on Dominic Iorfa, Aden Flint, Jack Marriott, Keiren Westwood and Julian Börner, all with physical problems.

Confirmed Lineup: Joe Wildsmith, Moses Odubajo, Joost van Aken, Cheyenne Dunkley, Tom Lees, Adam Reach, Kadeem Harris, Barry Bannan, Liam Shaw, Joey Pelupessy, Josh Windass, Andy Holdsworth.
