LiontipsNottingham Forest vs Newcastle United. Prediction and Betting Tips for 2022/23 English Premier League (March 17, 2023).
Command Analysis
Steve Cooper warns his players at Nottingham Forest that they need to improve their game if they want to secure their residence in the Premier League. The manager criticized his team as they lost 1-3 to Tottenham last weekend, making it their fifth consecutive match without a win. Such a downturn in form has brought the team dangerously close to the relegation zone, with only two points separating them from the group of outsiders.
Their main failures have occurred away from home, while at the City Ground, the Tricky Trees are on an impressive unbeaten streak of nine games, earning 20 points out of the 26 they have earned throughout the season. Overall, Forest have only six wins and eight draws, and their attack has been poor - the team delivered only 21 goals in the current Premier League campaign.
Kouyate, Awoniyi, Wood, Biancone, Boly, Henderson, McKenna, and Scarpa have been ruled out of this fixture.
Newcastle United have not lost to Forest in the top flight since 1988. Moreover, the Magpies expect a final turnaround in a series of failures from their visit to Nottingham. In the last game, they defeated Wolverhampton (2-1), and this Friday they will be looking to build on that success. Eddie Howepraised the character of his team after the win, and for the first time since the 2006/07 season, the fans' hopes of reaching the UEFA tournament have been revived.
The Magpies are currently only four points behind Tottenham, who are in fourth place, but they definitely need to find the way to convert more scoring chances finish in the Champions League zone. The team has only scored one goal in the last four away games, which is a bit concerning.
Krafth, Fraser, Joelinton and Gordon will not be able to play this week.
