City Ground will host an eagerly-awaited Premier League game as Nottingham Forest fight to escape the danger zone against Newcastle United. As both sides are likely to adopt an attack-minded approach, we predict a 2-2 draw. The Reds head into this match in strong overall form (2.10 points per game), winning six of their last ten, and remain particularly effective at home with a 50% win rate and a solid defensive record of just 0.50 goals conceded per game. However, injury doubts over Cunha, Murillo, and Dan Ndoye could slightly disrupt their balance.
Newcastle, meanwhile, arrive after a morale-boosting 3-1 win over Brighton, though their season has been inconsistent (1.00 points per game over the last ten). The Magpies' defence remains shaky, conceding 2.00 goals per match, but their matches are typically open and entertaining, averaging 3.30 total goals with BTTS landing in 80% of games. Forest’s strong defensive structure contrasts with Newcastle’s chaotic but dangerous attacking profile, while head-to-head data also leans toward goals, with 73% BTTS and 67% over 2.5 goals in past meetings.
Considering strong H2H trend and Newcastle high-scoring games on the road, we believe that there is big value in betting on Both Teams to Score, alongside Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals.
This Premier League match will be played on Sunday 10 May 2026 at 14:00.
