Nottingham Forest vs Man United Prediction
Nottingham Forest vs Man United Betting Tips
Bruno Fernandes has been single-handedly carrying Manchester United this season, with 32 goal contributions in 44 games, consisting of 16 goals and 16 assists.
The Red Devils captain was in exceptional form before the international break, registering three goals and four assists in four Premier League matches, including a Man of the Match performance against Leicester, where he scored and provided two assists. Just three days earlier, he netted a hat-trick in the 4-1 Europa League win over Real Sociedad.
While Nottingham Forest away will pose a tough challenge for an improving Manchester United side, it’s hard to overlook Fernandes at 9/5 (Paddy Power) to continue his fine form by delivering either a goal or an assist on Tuesday night.
For the Bet Builder, we've combined a card for Manchester United's Manuel Ugarte with a goal or an assist for Nottingham Forest's Anthony Elanga to create a 7/1 double with bet365.
Manuel Ugarte has earned the most yellow cards of any Manchester United player in the Premier League this season, with eight in 21 games; an average of one card every 2.6 matches. His combative style has led to five yellow cards in his last 10 top-flight appearances.
Since Anthony Elanga last faced his former club in mid-December, he’s scored five goals and provided six assists in 14 Premier League matches. He continued this strong form during the international break, scoring for Sweden, and you can expect the winger to be highly motivated to impress against his old team.
Thanks to bet365’s new 'Sub On Play On' feature, if either player is substituted, the incoming player will take their place in the market. For example, if Ugarte is replaced by Casemiro and the latter gets a yellow card, this part of the bet will still be successful.
Nottingham Forest vs Man United Lineups
Nottingham Forest's star striker Chris Wood is out for Nottingham Forest but Anthony Elanga returns.
Man United have made four changes with Leny Yoro, Casemiro, Joshua Zirkzee, and Patrick Dorgu all starting.
