Premier League Betting Preview: Nottingham Forest vs Burnley

Nottingham Forest clash with Burnley at City Ground, with kick-off set for 09:00 on Sunday 19 April.

Strong Case for Backing Under 2.5 Goals

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.

Last H2H Saw Game End 1-1

Burnley suffered a second consecutive Premier League defeat when losing 2-0 in their previous league 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.

Latest Match Odds Suggest Forest Victory

Nottingham Forest are available at -213 to come away with a triumph in this Premier League clash, meaning a 68% likelihood of winning according to the published betting odds. Burnley are operating at larger odds than the opposition and the underdogs can be wagered at +575.

If you back Forest -1 on the Asian Handicap at -127, you will get money back if they beat Burnley by a goal, while there’s a full return for this wager if they are able to claim a victory by two goals or more.
