LiontipsNottingham Forest - Porto: betting tip (cf 2.14) and bets on the Europa League match
Command Analysis
Current form
Since the beginning of the season, Nottingham Forest has been running wild. Postecoglou worked with the team for only 39 days and was fired amid the disastrous results. The experienced Sean Dyche, who is a stickler for pragmatic football, was appointed in his place. Undoubtedly, given the current state of affairs in the foresters' camp, it will not be easy for the new coach. At the moment, Nottingham Forest is on a four-game losing streak. In the Premier League, the team that delighted with its performance last season is in 18th place in the relegation zone. In the Europa League, they managed to snatch a difficult draw away from Betis (2:2) at the start, followed by a home defeat from Midtjylland (2:3). The former reliability of foresters in defense has completely disappeared.
Disqualifications and injuries
Due to injury, only Aina will not play today.
Interesting betting trends
- In four consecutive matches, Nottingham Forest had not won in the first half
- In three of the five previous matches involving the Foresters, there was no exchange of goals scored.
Provisional squad: Celce – Williams, Milenkovic, Murillo, Morato, Zinchenko – Gibbs-White, Yates, Anderson, Ndoye – Wood.
Current form
Everything has been very stable and smooth for Porto throughout the season. The Dragons scored 22 points in eight rounds in the Primeira Liga and topped the standings. The only loss of points in the championship occurred in the confrontation with Benfica (0-0). At the moment, Porto is ahead of its closest pursuer, Sporting, by three points in the ranking. In the Europa League, Francesco Farioli's team scored the maximum six points, beating Salzburg (1-0) and Crvena Zvezda (2-1) in turn. It is characteristic that in the game against the Serbs, the Portuguese used a decent rotation of the squad, as they were preparing for an important battle in the Primeira with Benfica.
Disqualifications and injuries
Due to injuries, N. Perez and De Jong will not play today. T. Perez is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- In three of the last five matches involving Porto, a draw was recorded at the end of the first half.
- In the previous five matches with Porto, there was only one goal exchange.
Approximate line–up: D.Costa - Fernandes, Bednarek, Kivior, Moura – Froholdt, Varela, Veiga – Pepe, Agehova, Sainz.

64.00Tip and bets
The obvious questions are raised by the fact that Nottingham Forest gets the status of the favorite in the bookmaker line. Foresters won for the last and only time in the season back in August, they got another coach. We don't think that Sean Dyche will be able to solve all the problems of the team right away, especially in defense. Porto has not suffered a single defeat in all competitions since the beginning of the season, losing points only in the game against Benfica. At the moment, the dragons are stronger in all respects than their crisis opponent. Taking into account the coefficients set, a bet on the guests is suggested.
Our betting tip is that Porto will win with an Asian handicap (0) for a coefficient of 2.14
Bet on the total
Last season, Nottingham Forest was famous for its reliable defense and pragmatic football. Now this reliability is not even close, in the previous three matches the foresters conceded at least two goals. We do not think that Porto will have any difficulty opening the enemy's defenses at least twice.
The betting tip is Porto's individual goal total of more than one goal with a coefficient of 1.72
Betting on corners
Porto has a solid record on corners: in five of the previous six matches, the Dragons were stronger in this indicator. We expect the guests to make more serves from the corner flag today than the crisis Nottingham Forest.
Prediction – Porto wins on corners with a coefficient of 2.30
