Level 1 Bet Builder Tip

🚀 Savinho to have 2+ Shots 🔄

📈 Odds: 1.30

Savinho’s average of 3.02 shots ranks amongst Man City’s best, and with Nottingham Forest struggling defensively in recent matches, backing the tricky winger to have at least two shots is a sensible choice. The Brazilian has fired off at least two shots in 14 of his last 15 league starts for Manchester City, only failing to do so against Liverpool, whose defence ranks second-best in the league. Forest’s backline has been incomparable to that of The Reds, conceding an average of 12.6 shots per game, rising to a remarkable 15.7 when considering their last seven clashes.

🩹 Savinho to be Fouled 1+ Times 🔄

📈 Odds: 1.25

Savinho is on a fouls drawing spree having won a foul in each of his last seven matches across all competitions. He is averaging 1.31 fouls won P/90 in the Premier League and he has won multiple fouls in each of his last three against Newcastle, Liverpool and Tottenham. In the last meeting, Forest ended up committing a total of 15 fouls at the Etihad. They tend to reach that double figures mark quite consistently, including in each of their last two against Newcastle and Arsenal.

🚩 Man City Corner Match Bet

📈 Odds: 1.57

Man City have boasted an impressive average of 7.22 corners per game in the Premier League to date - second only to Tottenham. Nottingham Forest, by contrast, ranks 14th with regards to that metric, averaging just 4.37. As well as winning more, Man City also concede fewer than Nottingham Forest, with City’s opponents winning 3.48 - the second-fewest in the league, whilst Forest’s opposition have won an average of 6.56 corners - the second most in the league. City have won six of their last nine corner match bets, falling short only against corner-connoisseurs Tottenham, Real Madrid, and Arsenal. Meanwhile, Nottingham Forest have lost ten of their most recent 11 league corner battles.

🟨 Under 2.5 Man City Cards

📈 Odds: 1.33

Discipline is scarcely an issue for Guardiola’s men who have averaged just 1.74 cards per league game, the second-fewest of any side. Although Nottingham Forest do boast an impressive record of drawing cards, this selection has been a winner in both earlier clashes between these sides in 2024, with Man City committing a combined 13 fouls and picking up just two cards. In fact, Man City have fallen short of the three card threshold in each of their last nine matches, averaging no more than 0.33 cards per game over the period and drawing a blank in seven. Additionally, Nottingham Forest’s opponents have picked up fewer than three cards in nine of their last 11 games across all competitions.

Level 2 Bet Builder Tip

🩹 Omar Marmoush to be Fouled 2+ Times 🔄

📈 Odds: 1.57

Marmoush’s league average of 2.68 fouls drawn per 90 is the most of any Man City player, except Jack Grealish, and implies there is plenty of value to be found. Previous to moving to England, Marmoush was averaging 3.40 fouls won per 90 in The Bundesliga. This selection has been a winner in 11 of Marmoush’s most recent 13 domestic starts, including five out of six in England. It’s unclear exactly which midfielders will start for Forest, but whoever Nuno selects, they’re sure to be a set of frequent offenders, with Sangare, Yates, Anderson, and Dominguez averaging 2.77, 2.40, 1.51, and 1.45 fouls per 90, respectively.

⚽ Erling Haaland to Score Anytime 🔄

📈 Odds: 2.0

Haaland has already found the back of the net on 38 occasions this season, boasting a league tally of 20 goals - second only to Salah. He’s accumulated a total of 21.86 expected goals in the league, which is more than any other player, showcasing the quality of chances he receives. The Norwegian has scored at least once in six of his last eight matches and eight of his most recent 11 across all competitions. The Nottingham Forest defence was breached three last time out against Man City and has looked shaky in recent weeks, conceding four to Newcastle, two against Exeter City, five versus Bournemouth, and two in their clash with Southampton.

🚩 Under 4.5 Nottingham Forest Corners

📈 Odds: 1.85

Nottingham Forest tend not to be the most prolific of sides when considering the corner department, averaging just 4.37 per game, ranking 15th in the league with respect to that metric. Additionally, Man City's rate of 3.48 conceded per game is the second-fewest in the league and implies Forest are unlikely to better their average. In Nottingham Forest’s last 14 league games, they’ve surpassed the four mark on just three occasions.

🏆 Man City to Win

📈 Odds: 1.87

Although Man City’s season has been far from smooth-running, they seem to have picked up a bit of domestic form, albeit at too late a stage to launch a serious title challenge. Guardiola’s men have won nine of their last 12 domestic clashes, including a few challenging games against Tottenham, Chelsea, and Newcastle. Earlier in the season, they comfortably dispatched Nottingham Forest in a 3-0 win at The Etihad. Forest, by contrast, are now five games without a win, having suffered two defeats and three draws (in 90 minutes), including disappointing stalemates against Exeter City and Ipswich.
