Bournemouth vs Nottingham Forest Odds

The odds are updated on a frequent basis. You might therefore find that they are different to the ones listed for the above betting predictions.

Bournemouth Made Favourites by the Bookies

The bookies have Bournemouth as -130 favourites for this Premier League clash, with the Full-Time Result betting odds implying that they are 56% likely to win. Nottingham Forest are the underdogs at +330 which implies a lesser percentage prospect of winning.

Betting Bournemouth -0.75 on the Asian Handicap at -100 means splitting stake between -0.5 and -1.0. Therefore, a one-goal win over Forest means a win and a push, with a 2+ goal victory meaning a full payout.

If you’re wagering on Total Goals, the market is finding it hard to split Overs and Unders. If you think that both sides will end up scoring, then the Both Teams to Score Yes option can be backed at -128.

The best football betting sites offer hundreds of markets when it comes to Premier League games. Make sure you look through all the available options before deciding which bet to place.
