LiontipsManchester City vs Nottingham Forest: betting tip (CF 4.30) and bets on the English Premier League match
Command Analysis
Current form
Under the leadership of Josep Guardiola, Manchester City has been demonstrating its ability to make the most of the finishing stretches for several seasons. Now, it seems, such a moment has come. As soon as Arsenal began to misfire in the Premier League, they allowed themselves to draw twice in a row, as the townspeople immediately turned on full power and highlighted a series of four consecutive victories. Obviously, a serious fight for the title is expected, because the gap from the Gunners is five points and there is a game in reserve.
In the last round, Manchester City played away against Leeds, who had taken away points from the giants more than once on their own field. It was not an easy victory, as expected, but still the class took its toll, the townspeople realized their moment, and they themselves won back to zero. Taking into account all the tournaments, they now have a winning streak of six matches, in which they conceded only three goals. It is characteristic that now Manchester City clearly does not depend solely on Holland. The Norwegian has a slight decline, today he may not play at all due to a slight injury, but the team has not stopped, Marmush, Semenyo, Sherki, and almost any player in general can prove themselves in a single game.
Manchester City still claims all the titles in the tournaments where it participates. In the League Cup, the townspeople will face Arsenal in the final. They reached the 1/8 finals in the FA Cup, as well as in the Champions League, where they will face a crucial battle with Real Madrid.

Current form
Nottingham Forest is among the leaders in the Premier League in terms of the number of coaching retirements per season, but at the same time it risks going to the Championship. By the start of the 29th round, the foresters are in 17th place and are only two points away from the relegation zone. Given that West Ham, the main competitor in the fight for survival, is currently doing much better during the season, the prospects for Nottingham Forest look very vague.
Immediately after Vitor Pereira appeared on the coaching bridge, he managed to confidently defeat Fenerbahce in the Europa League with a score of 3:0. However, the success ended there. This was followed by a defeat in the Premier League from Liverpool (0:1), in the second leg they lost at home to the Turks (1:2), and then lost away to Brighton with a score of 1:2.
It's obviously not easy for Nottingham Forest to play in several tournaments at once, which is noticeable throughout the season, regardless of who the head coach is. So, Pereira did not send the main squad for the second leg against Fenerbahce, he gave the leaders the opportunity to rest. However, the reserve could not cope, they had to release the base during the match and make substitutions. Today we have to play again in a busy schedule, there are no opportunities for full rotation.
Disqualifications and injuries
Pain, Wood, Victor and Savona are injured, Ortega is questionable.
Interesting betting trends

The approximate line-up: Sels – Aina, Milenkovic, Murillo, Williams – Anderson, Sangare – Hutchinson, Gibbs-White, Hudson-Odoi – Jesus.

1.42Tip and bets
There is no particular intrigue in terms of the outcome in the upcoming match. Manchester City has scored an impressive run, is on a winning streak of six matches, taking into account all tournaments, and is extremely motivated to catch up with Arsenal in the standings. The main thing is that the townspeople have the opportunity for a full rotation of the squad in conditions of a busy schedule of games, there is someone to make the result, even taking into account Holland's problems. Nottingham Forest cannot withstand a busy calendar, and another change of coach has not immediately had a positive effect in the Premier League. But at the moment, the foresters are not ready to oppose something to a rival superior in class.
Our prediction is that Manchester City will win with an Asian handicap (-1.5) by a factor of 2.10
Bet on the total
It should be noted that the recent successes of Manchester City are largely due to the fact that they have managed to stabilize the game in defense. So, in three of the four previous matches, the townspeople played to zero. Nottingham Forest is noticeably inferior in class, Liverpool also failed to score, and there is a high probability that today the foresters will not be able to hit the opponent's goal.
The second bet is that Nottingham Forest will not score with a coefficient of 2.24
A bet on the exact difference in the bill
Manchester City successfully plays with Nottingham Forest, won the last six face-to-face meetings in a row. It is characteristic that in three of these six games we managed to win with a handicap of two goals. We expect the townspeople to achieve a comfortable victory today and avoid a nervous ending.
Prediction – Manchester City will win with a two-goal advantage with a coefficient of 4.30
