🔹 Correct score prediction: Manchester United 2-1 Nottingham Forest🔹
1×2 Predictions
Manchester United are the favourites and I’m backing them to prevail on the 1×2 market.
The Red Devils had several opportunities to take the lead against Tottenham. There was a creative spark but their deficiencies in midfield meant they also looked vulnerable to opposition attacks.
Ten Hag’s side have won 17 of their last 20 matches at home. Over this period they have scored 2.15 goals per game and conceded just 0.65. United are priced at 17/50 to win the match with Betking.
Draw No Bet Predictions
The draw no bet gives the punter even greater security when backing a team to win. However, Manchester United are already a short price here so they are 11/100 on BetKing’s draw-no-bet market.
BTTS Predictions
Manchester United were wasteful in front of goal in their last match against Tottenham. Bruno Fernandes squandered a golden opportunity to give his side the lead and there were several occasions where the Red Devils failed to make the most of winning the ball high up the pitch.
Ten Hag’s side are the favourite for this one and they have a great knack of scoring at Old Trafford. They have failed to score in just one of their last 20 home matches. They were reduced to 10 men in the first half of that game.
Nottingham Forest ill take confidence from the fact that United have looked fragile at the back so far. Wolves were unfortunate not to score in the last game at this ground. I’m backing Nottingham Forest to find the net here.

Our Analysis of the Manchester United vs Nottingham Forest Match
Both of these sides have three points after two matches but it is the visitors who will be happier with their start to the season. Anthony Elanga has looked a threat in their two matches so far. Steve Cooper’s team also managed to give Arsenal a scare at the Emirates on the opening day.
Manchester United were fortunate to start the season with a win and their performances so far have given Erik Ten Hag much to muse over. His decision to start both Mason Mount and Bruno Fernandes has meant United have lacked bodies in the middle of the park when losing possession. Ten Hag will be forced to change that approach here thanks to an injury to Mount.
The Red Devils have failed to control matches over the course of the last year. Expect another entertaining game where with chances at both ends. Manchester United’s quality should be just enough to see them through.
Top Scorers Predictions for Manchester United vs Nottingham Forest
My pick for top scorer in Manchester United vs Nottingham Forest is Anthony Martial.
Manchester United have lacked a focal point in attack since Cristiano Ronaldo departed. Rasmus Hojlund is expected to be a part of the matchday squad on Saturday but he is unlikely to start so the goal scorer pick for this one is Anthony Martial.
Martial came on against Tottenham and could lead the United attack here. The Frenchman has had vibrant spells throughout his career in England but this season could be his last chance to prolong his career at United.
🔹 Our final tip is for Anthony Martial to score any time at 32/5 on Betking. 🔹
Home advantage enough for Manchester United
Manchester United made a slow start last season and this campaign has started in a similar manner. Ten Hag’s team have looked fatigued as matches have worn on but they will be hoping to kick into gear when they take on Nottingham Forest.
The Red Devils have a wealth of attacking talent and they are capable of putting on a show when things click into place.
