Leicester vs Nottingham ForestPreview

Leicester

Leicester secured their first win of the current season only in the seventh EPL round, defeating Bournemouth 1-0. The Foxes were fortunate in that match, as their opponents created several dangerous chances but failed to score.

Although Steve Cooper is known for his defensive style of play, his team has struggled this season. Leicester have the worst stats in expected goals conceded and sit at the bottom of the expected points table. Leicester’s defense lacks organization, allowing opponents to generate numerous dangerous chances in every match.

Following their first, somewhat lucky, victory, the Foxes surprisingly won for the second consecutive time, defeating Southampton 3-2 away.

After the first half, Leicester seemed to have little chance of achieving a positive result in the match. Their opponents dominated and easily scored two goals, with the potential for more.

However, the Foxes managed to completely change the course of the match in their favor during the second half by launching regular attacks down both the left and right flanks.

Steve Cooper instructed Facundo Buonanotte to play in the center just behind their striker while Abdul Fatawu Issahaku took position on the right wing. These two players were instrumental in helping the visitors create a series of chances, ultimately leading to three goals.

Leicester achieved victory by playing with an attacking style and maximum intensity. However, it remains questionable whether the team can maintain their place in the Premier League by solely relying on attack without solid defensive play.

In their upcoming matches, Cooper’s team may not experience the same kind of luck in defense as they did previously. It’s also unlikely that they will consistently score 2-3 goals in attack.

Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest continues to be one of the best teams in the Premier League in terms of defensive performance. Under Nuno Espírito Santo, the team currently ranks second for fewest goals conceded and fifth for expected goals against in the Premier League.

Such strong defensive play allows the Tricky Trees to remain in the top ten of the league table, contending for fifth place. In the seventh round, Forest drew 1-1 away against Chelsea, and subsequently won their home match against Crystal Palace (1-0).

The main issue for Nottingham is their heavy reliance on Chris Wood for goals. The New Zealand striker has missed several opportunities but has still managed to score five goals this season, while the rest of the team has only contributed three goals.

Although Espírito Santo has many players with excellent dribbling skills and the ability to deliver dangerous passes, few are effective at converting their chances.

Additionally, the Tricky Trees lack an alternative to Chris Wood, as Taiwo Awoniyi has yet to find his optimal form this season.

Nonetheless, Nottingham Forest is a challenging opponent for all Premier League clubs. Espírito Santo’s team scores few goals but has a highly talented attacking line. However, they are currently missing one or two strikers who could regularly convert their chances.

Leicester vs Nottingham Forest Prediction

  • Pick: 2X (Nottingham Forest won`t lose)
  • Odds: 1.45 (22Bet)
  • Score prediction: Leicester 1-1 Nottingham Forest

Leicester has won two matches, but they’ve allowed numerous dangerous opportunities and, with a bit of luck, managed to secure six points.

It’s hard to imagine that the home team can win again, especially against Nottingham Forest, which has only lost once this season.

Nottingham Forest has a solid defense and can capitalize on Leicester’s defenders’ mistakes. Therefore, it seems plausible to choose the option in which Nottingham Forest at least won’t lose.

Leicester vs Nottingham Forest Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Total Shots On Target. Chris Wood Over (0.5)
  • Odds: 1.44 (22Bet)

Chris Wood regularly receives excellent scoring chances in every match, thanks to high-quality passes from his teammates. Given Leicester’s defensive issues, it’s likely that Wood will get at least one shot on target against the opponents.
