Nottingham - Leicester Prediction, Picks and Tips
Nottingham Forest is ranked 8th in the English Championship, just 2 points behind 6th (which ensures access to the play-offs for promotion). The team's goal average is 39 goals scored and 31 conceded. The team comes after a 1-2 defeat at Cardiff in Wales. Steven Cooper's boys played very poorly, with only one shot on the opponent's goal area and only 2 corners. The goal also came only in the extra time of the game. In the FA Cup, Nottingham offered one of the surprises of the previous round, after the 1-0 success against Arsenal. Lewis Grabbana unleashed a swerving effort from the right that the visitors' keeper did well to tip wide. The former Premier League champion has a very difficult season, at the end of which she has little chance of winning the European Cups. Leicester come after a draw, at home against Brighton. Brendan Rodgers's side opened the scoring immediately after the break, through Patson Daka, but Danny Welbeck equalized in the end. In the standings, Leicester City is only on 10, and has a negative goal average, 34:37. The King Power Stadium team has had big team problems lately, especially because of Covid. However, Leicester had a solid performance in the previous round of English Cup football, when they beat Watford 4-1. Fox goals were scored by Tielemans, Maddison, Barnes and Albrighton.
The team coached by Brandon Rodgers is the holder of the trophy, after winning the final with Chelsea last season. The only goal of the game was scored by the Belgian Tielemans, with a superb shot from outside the box. On the other hand, the hosts managed to pass only one round, and came out in the round of 16, after 1-5 on Swansea's field. The match on City Ground promises to be interesting and balanced, at least if we look at the odds offered by the bookmakers. The visiting team starts as a favorite, but we are not talking about some unbalanced odds. Out of the race for the European Cup places at the moment, Leicester can succeed in a good FA Cup football and thus gain access to the Europa League. Nottingham have a chance to reach the top 6 in the Championship and fight for promotion. However, The Reds are expected to treat the duel with Leicester with the utmost interest, and we could witness a new surprise.
