Nottingham Forest v Ipswich
📅
Kick Off: Saturday 30th November at 15:00
🏆
Competition: Premier League
High-flying Nottingham Forest will be looking to bring an end to their two-game losing streak on Saturday when they play host to relegation-battling Ipswich Town. The Tractor Boys sit third from bottom but have gone unbeaten in their last three matches, one of which provided their first win of the season against Tottenham Hotspur.
⭐ Nottingham Forest v Ipswich Best Bets
We’re expecting goals in this game for both teams as three of the last four league meetings between the pair produced goals at both ends of the pitch.
Hosts Nottingham Forest have only failed to score in one of their last six league games, while both teams have scored in five of Ipswich’s last six matches. Half of Forest’s home games have ended with both teams scoring this season, while 83% of the Tractor Boys away games have seen both teams score.
👕 Nottingham Forest v Ipswich Predicted XI
🔍 Nottingham Forest v Ipswich Players to Watch
🔵 Omari Hutchinson
Omari Hutchinson has been a key player for Ipswich Town this season, helping to create goalscoring opportunities for his teammates as well as chipping in with one league goal of his own.
Hutchinson often plays that thankless role supporting Liam Davis and helping to win his team free kicks. Nobody in the Ipswich side has drawn more fouls this season than Hutchinson (17), many of which have been in vital areas of the midfield and the oppositions’ final third.
🔴 Ryan Yates
Ryan Yates isn’t really known for his goalscoring ability, he is more of a ball-winning midfielder who likes to get stuck in and get his team going forward. However, the Englishman has had 19 shots this season, only one fewer than the club’s top scorer Chris Wood, but just five of those have hit the target. While his SoT accuracy is only 26.3%, that hasn’t stopped Yates from firing an average of 1.58 shots per game this season.
🔵 Sam Morsy
Only Liam Delap has given away more fouls for Ipswich this season than their Egyptian midfielder Sam Morsy. Morsy has committed 20 fouls in his 11 Premier League starts which is four more than Kalvin Phillips and seven behind Liam Delap. The 33-year-old midfielder is averaging 1.81 fouls per game this season, so it isn’t too much of a stretch to see the Egyptian committing three fouls against Nottingham Forest this weekend.

💻 Nottingham Forest v Ipswich Form and Tactics
Nottingham Forest have more often than not started with a 4-2-3-1 system this season and that is how we expect Nuno Espírito Santo’s side to lineup on Saturday. Forest tend to enjoy more of the possession at home having only finished with below 50% of the possession in two games at The City Ground and both of those ended in defeat. Saturday’s hosts enjoyed an xG of 2.2 at home to West Ham earlier this month, which equalled their season highest.
Keiran McKenna has stuck with a 4-2-3-1 formation this season, apart from their 4-1 defeat at Man City, and his team have only ended with more of the possession once in the Premier League this season and that ended in a 2-0 home defeat against Everton. Ipswich’s highest xG this season as been 1.6 which the Tractor Boys have achieved on three separate occasions.
