Data provided by

Coventry City have endured a nightmare start to life back in the top flight, losing all four and shipping 10 goals without reply, and they now travel to a Nottingham Forest side unbeaten in three. The City Ground crowd will expect their team to take full advantage of the division’s most out-of-sorts visitors on Saturday evening, kicking off at 5:30pm.

Anthony Eadson’s Nottingham Forest vs Coventry predictions, best bets and score prediction are below.

Premium Tips

Anthony Eadson is firmly with the hosts, and likes Morgan Gibbs-White to rack up the shots.

Premium TipOddsWhy we’re backing it
Nottingham Forest to win & under 4.5 goals20/23 (BoyleSports)I want Nottingham Forest onside here after their 2-1 away win at Aston Villa. They are now three unbeaten and starting to click under Oliver Glasner. Both Igor Jesus and Liam Delap got on the scoresheet last weekend, and along with Morgan Gibbs-White in attack, they can cause Coventry serious problems. At 8/13 they look a little short, but I like the home win and under 4.5 goals, coming in at 10/11. Coventry are yet to score this season and have lost four from four. Forest will have earmarked three points here and I expect a home win.
Morgan Gibbs-White 2+ shots on target8/5 (BoyleSports)Morgan Gibbs-White remains one of Nottingham Forest’s biggest attacking threats, with the midfielder registering 10 shots in his first four Premier League appearances. He has also managed a shot on target in each of his last three league games against Liverpool, Tottenham and Aston Villa. Coventry represent a step down in opposition, and Gibbs-White can make the difference in front of goal. At 17/10 for two or more shots on target, that volume makes him a strong play.

How Nottingham Forest go into the game

Nottingham Forest have found their feet after an opening defeat to Leeds, drawing with Liverpool and Tottenham before beating Aston Villa 2-1. Momentum is building.

Well-organised and dangerous on the break, Forest should have far too much for a struggling Coventry at home.

How Coventry City go into the game

Coventry have lost all four, beaten by Arsenal, Hull, Manchester City and hammered 5-0 at Brighton. Ten conceded and none scored is a brutal start.

Low on confidence and yet to find the net, Coventry face another daunting afternoon on the road.
