Nottingham Forest Faces Leeds United Amid Betting Interest

NOTTINGHAM, England — Nottingham Forest will host Leeds United on Sunday, November 9 at 9:00 AM ET, as fans and bettors keep a keen eye on player prop odds, particularly for Nicolo Savona to score. This matchup follows Nottingham’s recent 2-2 draw against Manchester United on November 1.

In their last encounter, Nottingham ended up taking 15 shots, matching Manchester United’s total. As the Premier League season progresses, odds for this upcoming match have been updated, reflecting a competitive landscape.

Sean Dyche, who began his tenure as Forest’s manager with a win, expressed frustration after his team was held to a goalless draw against Sturm Graz in the Europa League. This disappointing outcome marked the third game without a victory for Forest, prompting concerns as they aim to regain form against a struggling Leeds side.

Leeds United has faced challenges recently, losing five out of their ten league matches this season. Their inability to perform away from home worsens their outlook for this fixture. Last week, Leeds was decimated by Brighton, who accumulated 3.07 expected goals.

Despite their recent struggles, Nottingham hopes to capitalize on Leeds’ vulnerabilities, especially considering their impressive defensive performance against Sturm Graz, where they only allowed three shots.

As for lineup news, Forest’s Savona has been under scrutiny due to his rising foul count, which could impact his performance against Leeds. He faces competition from Leeds’ Noah Okafor, who has proven to be a tricky opponent due to his dribbling skills.

Amid the betting excitement, fans remain hopeful that Dyche’s squad can convert their recent performances into a much-needed victory this Sunday.
