Our Prediction<\/th>\nOdds & Bookmaker<\/th>\nConfidence<\/th>\nWhy We’re Backing It<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n
Morgan Gibbs-White Over 0.5 Shots on Target<\/strong><\/td>\n4\/5 @ Bet365<\/a>
(55.6%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nAfter a hat-trick last time out against Burnley, confidence will be high for Morgan Gibbs-White and with Forest desperatly needing points, he will lead the charge on the Sunderland goal. It’s 12 league goals in total this season for the 26-year-old and when it comes to hitting the target, he has done so at least once in all of his last six and in nine of his last ten. All things considered, 4\/5 looks too big. <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Neco Williams Over 1.5 Shots <\/strong><\/td>\n12\/5 @ BetMGM<\/a>
(29.4%)<\/td>\n		\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50<\/td>\nWith Premier League survival on the minds of the visitors, we expect Forest to attack here. Neco Williams may be a left back, but he has let off at least two shots in all of his last four Premier League matches, with figures of 2,2,4,2. Only Igor Jesus and Morgan Gibbs-White have taken more shots this season than Williams and with that in mind, we think this bet has more of a chance than the 29% that 12\/5 implies. <\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n
