The Toffees to avoid defeat at home
Everton are without a loss in the past three meetings in this clash. With this game being crucial in the battle for survival, we do not expect the Toffees to lose at Goodison Park to the Reds.
At the time of writing, the two sides, who have both suffered points deductions this season, are separated by just a single point. They sit 16th and 17th respectively, with one and two points above the relegation zone.
Without their eight-point deduction, Everton would currently sit 14th, 10 points from the drop zone. Meanwhile, Forest would be 15th instead and six points clear of the bottom three without their four-point penalty.
Everton have won 1-0 four times so far this season across all competitions. Based on that, Everton will be keen to rely on that decent home form to take something from this game. Hence, we have decided to back them in this Everton vs Nottingham Forest predictions piece.
Bet 1: Everton to win or draw & under 3.5 @ 1.78 with Bet9ja
Chris Wood to score anytime
Chris Wood has scored 12 Premier League goals in 26 games this season.
Wood was not Forest’s first-choice striker before the start of this season. However, he has proved to be the man for his side, following the lengthy absence of Nigerian striker Taiwo Awoniyi. The veteran forward has been scoring goals in crucial games over the past few weeks and could play a part in this fixture at Goodison Park.
Everton have conceded 48 goals this season, and Wood will likely feel optimistic about adding to the hosts’ woes. Everton vs Nottingham Forest seems like a game that could produce this outcome, making it a decent tip.
The 32-year-old has scored in four of the past six games in the Premier League. He hopes to take a bite at Everton’s defence, especially after the 6-0 bashing in their last game at Chelsea.
Bet 2: Chris Wood to score anytime @ 3.20 with BetKing
A possible combined market outcome at Everton
Eight of Everton’s last 11 Premier League games have seen two goals or less.
This particular selection has a lot to do with Everton and their history of low-scoring affairs in the Premier League this season. The Toffees and Sean Dyche have been poor in recent games and conceded six at Stamford Bridge on Monday night, so we shouldn’t even expect a similar goal-fest here.
Similarly, their past seven meetings have resulted in either a draw or under 2.5. This clash is a relegation six-pointer and both teams will try to go for the jugular and try not to taste defeat here.
Therefore, our betting expert is tilting towards this combined market direction in this Everton vs Nottingham Forest predictions piece.

Both teams to slot the ball home
Nottingham Forest have not kept a clean sheet in their past 12 games in all competitions.
Everton have scored 32 goals in the Premier League this season, which is the second-lowest in the Premier League this season. Meanwhile, they have conceded 48 goals. On the other hand, Nottingham Forest have scored 42 goals and conceded 58.
It is a meeting of two teams with vulnerable defences. Six of the past seven games involving the two sides have produced under 2.5 goals. In addition, goals have been rare in this particular contest, and that makes this pick a risky one.
However, both teams have scored in the past five Premier League games involving Nottingham Forest, as have three of the past four Premier League games at Goodison Park.
This is one of the risky tips in this Everton vs Nottingham Forest predictions piece.
