Leicester City vs Nottingham Forest Predictions and Betting Tips

Expect a cagey affair

  • Nottingham Forest have had under 2.5 goals in 8 of their 9 matches across all competitions this season. Odds for under 2.5 goals stand at 4/5.
  • Leicester City’s home form has also seen fewer than three goals in 3 of their 4 home games. Odds for a low-scoring match are favorable for punters seeking value.

Chris Wood in goal-scoring form

  • Nottingham Forest’s striker Chris Wood has been in outstanding form, scoring 5 goals in his last 6 games for both club and country. Back him in the anytime goalscorer market at 2/1 to continue his scoring run.

Leicester looking to build momentum
Fresh off a stunning comeback win over Southampton, Leicester City will hope to capitalize on that momentum. However, facing a defensively disciplined Nottingham Forest side will likely limit their chances to replicate that kind of attacking performance. Leicester had only scored 9 goals in their first 7 games before last weekend, and Nottingham Forest have one of the strongest defenses in the league, having conceded just 6 goals so far.

Forest’s steady start
Against the odds, Nottingham Forest sit comfortably in 8th place with 13 points from 8 games, largely due to their solid defense. They have only conceded 6 goals—the second-best defensive record in the Premier League. However, they’ve only scored 8 goals themselves, suggesting another tight, low-scoring match.

Best bets and predictions
With under 2.5 goals landing in most of Nottingham Forest’s games, and Leicester drawing two of their four home Premier League matches 1-1, a low-scoring draw is a strong possibility. The odds for a 1-1 draw are 6/1, making it a solid correct score prediction.

For goal-scorer markets, Chris Wood presents a great option. Having scored 5 of Nottingham Forest’s 8 goals this season, he’s priced at 2/1 to find the net anytime, which could provide good value in what’s expected to be a tight contest.
