Manchester United vs Nottingham Forest Premier League Prediction Match Details
The final curtain of Saturday’s Premier League action will come to an end at Old Trafford when Manchester United will host Nottingham Forest. Can Ruben Amorim bounce back from their defeat at Emirates Stadium?
Manchester United Preview & Form
Ruben Amorim tastes his first defeat as Manchester United boss on Wednesday night as his side was beaten 2-0 by Arsenal at the Emirates Stadium on Wednesday night, bringing his three-match unbeaten run to an end. The result also brought a seven-match unbeaten run across all competitions for the Red Devils, and they will be desperate to return to winning ways to continue their hope for a European spot next season. United have made a slow start to their campaign as they currently sit in 13th place with five wins, four draws, and five losses, four points behind the top five.
Ruben Amorim’s men have been strong at Old Trafford, boasting an impressive record of only two losses in their opening league games this season. United fans will be hoping their team can build on Ruben Amorim’s first home league win against Everton, with the team producing a brilliant performance in the match. The Red Devils are currently on a four-match winning streak at home and have remained unbeaten in their last seven home games across all competitions.
Nottingham Forest Preview & Form
Nottingham Forest has been one of the surprise packages this season, but an indecent run of form in recent games, where they lost three of their last four games, keeps their hope of playing in European competitions next season in doubt. Forest was heavily beaten by Manchester City 3-0 at the Etihad Stadium in their midweek clash courtesy of goals from Bernardo Silva, Kevin De Bruyne, and Jeremy Doku. Forest’s brilliant start to the season was halted by defeats to City, Arsenal, and Newcastle, but they managed to remain seventh in the league table with 22 points from their opening 14 league games, four points below the top four.
Forest will be confident of returning to winning ways, having beaten current table leader Liverpool at the Anfield Stadium. However, on the road recently, Forest has only won one of their last five league matches, losing two and playing two draws. Nuno Espirito Santo’s defense in their away games has looked vulnerable, having conceded ten goals in their last five games.
