Everton and Nottingham Forest will collide in the Premier League on Sunday, with both sides knowing the importance of maximum points at Goodison Park. Both sides remain in danger of suffering relegation to the Championship this term following the deduction of points.

Premier League Preview

It has been a far from perfect season to this point for both Everton and Nottingham Forest, but both sides will still be optimistic of securing their status in the top-flight. Forest come into this round sitting 17th in the standings, but they could kick off at Goodison Park on Sunday inside the relegation places. 

The East Midlands club has claimed just a single victory over their last five outings in the Premier League. Over that period of matches, they have suffered just a single defeat, with three matches ending in draws. Forest would have been disappointed not to have held on for maximum points in their previous outing after conceding a late equaliser in a 2-2 draw against Wolves.

Everton’s long stay in the Premier League is also under increasing danger this term. The Toffees come into this round sitting 16th in the standings, and they are just two points above the bottom three places in the table. Everton have suffered three defeats across their last five matches, but few were as humbling as their previous outing against Chelsea. 

The Toffees were well below the standard required at Stamford Bridge, as they fell to a 6-0 loss on the road. Everton conceded four goals inside the opening 45 minutes of that fixture, and they offered extremely little in the final third, registering just two shots on target. That match was Sean Dyche’s 308th game in the top-flight, and it was the first time that a side managed by the Englishman had conceded six goals. 

Everton vs Nottingham Forest Head to Head

Everton landed a 1-0 victory in the reverse fixture between the sides in December. However, each of the two clashes between the teams last term ended in draws. That included a 1-1 outcome when the sides met at Goodison Park in August 2022. 

Everton vs Nottingham Forest Prediction

Everton’s record in this fixture is a pleasing factor, but their recent form is a massive concern. Therefore, it could be worth taking a chance on Forest, who have been excellent in the final third across their recent outings.
