Premier League Betting Preview: Nottingham Forest vs Burnley

Survival hopefuls Nottingham Forest take on second-from-bottom Burnley at City Ground, with kick-off set for 09:00 on Sunday 19 April.

We believe that odds of +104 are appealing when it comes to wagering Under 2.5 on the Total Goals market. We’re of the opinion that Nottingham Forest and Burnley will play out a low-scoring contest.

In their last Premier League game, Nottingham Forest played out a 1-1 draw at home to Aston Villa at City Ground. Vitor Pereira's side had 41% possession and recorded four shots on target, with Neco Williams being the goalscorer.

Three days ago, Forest beat Porto 1-0 at home in the second leg of their Europa League quarter-final to advance to the semi-finals with a 2-1 aggregate victory.

Burnley suffered a second consecutive Premier League defeat when losing 2-0 in their previous game. This was at home to Brighton at Turf Moor. The Lancashire team had five shots on goal and 49% possession.

Head-to-Head Statistics

Forest haven’t lost to Burnley in their past three games, with the last clash ending 1-1 at Turf Moor. The 4 most recent H2H meetings have involved two draws, while Forest and Burnley have both won once.
