Nottingham Forest vs Ipswich Town: Match Preview & Prediction
In this highly anticipated Gameweek 13 clash, Nottingham Forest vs Ipswich Town promises plenty of action at The City Ground. After two tough defeats, Nottingham Forest has slipped out of the Premier League’s top-six, following losses to both Newcastle United and Arsenal. Last week’s 0-3 defeat at the Emirates Stadium was particularly disappointing, with Forest failing to register a single shot on target.
However, under the guidance of Nuno Espirito Santo, Forest will be looking to bounce back in front of their home crowd this Saturday.
On the other hand, Ipswich Town enters this encounter in good form, unbeaten in their last three Premier League matches. The Tractor Boys have stunned many with a 2-1 victory over Tottenham Hotspur, followed by a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Manchester United at Portman Road. Ipswich’s attack has been lively, registering six shots on target in their last match against the Red Devils.
Nottingham Forest vs Ipswich Town: Prediction
This match offers Nottingham Forest a chance to recover from recent setbacks. Despite Ipswich’s impressive results against Tottenham and Manchester United, their defensive fragility—having failed to keep a clean sheet in their last eight league games—might cost them at The City Ground.
Chris Wood, Nottingham Forest’s joint-third top scorer in the Premier League, will be key to their attacking threat. With odds of 2.50 for him to score anytime, betting on a home win at 1.65 seems like a solid choice. Forest will be eager to get back to winning ways in what could be a challenging, yet rewarding, matchup.
