Crystal Palace v Nottingham Forest

Nottingham Forest will be hoping to give their Champions League hopes a boost when they visit Selhurst Park on Monday night after a period of poor form has handed the initiative to the sides around them. Forest could find themselves cut adrift without a positive result here with all of their Champions League rivals to play before kick off in London.

Palace will have their focus on the FA Cup final to come against Manchester City but Oliver Glasner will want his side to keep their momentum and confidence high for the show piece event to come in a few weeks time.

⭐ Crystal Palace v Nottingham Forest Best Bets

Sarr was sensational in the FA Cup semi-final against Aston Villa, notching a brace as well as providing an assist in Palace’s best Wembley performance as they ran out 3-0 winners.

Sarr has had 24 shots on target across his 34 Premier League appearances this campaign, 26 of these have been starts taking his average to 0.90 shots on target per 90.

Nottingham Forest can certainly be exposed at the back despite their organised structure, this has held solid for most of the season but is now slightly starting to unravel - Forest have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last five games across all competitions.

Palace had 20 shots, with seven of these attempts finding the target in the initial meeting between the sides at the City Ground. Sarr didn’t start in that game, but each of the starting front three (Kamada, Nketiah and Eze) found the target at least once.
