Player Focus

Football predictions show that this clash will be tight between the two sides as both will look to be compact and solid in their approach. The two sides will need pace to unlock the opponent’s defense, especially in transition attacks, highlighting why Elanga and Gordon will be the football bet predictions pick for the influential players of the match.

  • Anthony Gordon – The rapid wide player has been a linchpin for Newcastle’s attack. The youngster has grabbed six goals and four assists for Newcastle in 25 appearances this season. His pace and dribbling make him essential for Eddie Howe’s side.
  • Anthony Elanga – The former Manchester United forward is on three goals and 3 assists in 18 appearances for Forest this season. His pace and cutting edge in the final third make him an essential piece of the Forest attack ahead of their St James’ Park trip.

Tactical Analysis

Football prediction analysis shows that Newcastle will look to play on the front foot in front of the St James’ Park crowd. Nottingham Forest will cede territory to the home side, defend deep and narrow, and look to hit them on the counter. 

Newcastle United vs. Nottingham Forest Expert Analysis

Eddie Howe will want his side to win this match by dominating the ball, controlling the tempo, and getting the home supporters on their side from the get-go. Expert soccer predictions show that Newcastle will have a fast start. 

Nottingham will look to defend deep and narrow; however, they will be aggressive and rapid in their counterattacks to stand a chance of getting a goal.

Newcastle will be the favorites in this match, given they play at home. However, with their inconsistent form in recent matches and with Nottingham Forest under a new manager, the clash will be unpredictable and open for both sides.

Newcastle will win the match and get the three points they need to mount a challenge for the top four.
