Crystal Palace v Nottingham Forest Prediction: 17/10 Tricky Trees to clip Eagles' wings

Nottingham Forest will hope to extend their unbeaten run against Crystal Palace to 12 matches when the two teams meet at Selhurst Park in the Premier League on Sunday.

The two teams are only separated in the table by two places and one point and both clubs will hope to hit the ground running after the recent three-week international break.

Crystal Palace v Nottingham Forest

Crystal Palace v Nottingham Forest Prediction

Best Bet: Nottingham Forest to win @ 17/10

Forest's players will have been frustrated to enter the break on the back of a 1-0 defeat to Coventry City. Oliver Glasner's side were the heavy favourites for that tie, but it was their first defeat in three.

A trip to Selhurst Park is nothing to be intimidated about from a Forest perspective, as the Eagles have lost both of their league matches on home soil.

Forest have also got a tremendous record against Palace, having avoided defeat in 11 consecutive meetings.

The Tricky Trees have also lost only one of their seven away league games, and they look like good value to pick up another solid result at Selhurst Park.

Alternative Bet: Morgan Gibbs-White to score or assist @ 5/4

Midfielder Morgan Gibbs-White has been central to everything Forest have done once again this season. The visitors have only scored four goals in the Premier League, but Gibbs-White has had a say in three of them.

The England international has two assists and a goal to his name this season. As Forest's set-piece and penalty taker, he is bound to play another huge role.

Gibbs-White scored for Forest in February's 1-1 draw with Palace and at odds against, he is good value to make another big contribution.

Crystal Palace v Nottingham Forest Bet Builder Tip

  • Jorgen Strand Larsen 1+ shots on target

  • Igor Jesus 1+ shots on target

  • Both teams to score

  • Adam Wharton 2+ fouls won

    Pays 7/1

Palace striker Jorgen Strand Larsen has really found his rhythm in recent weeks and he should hit the target once again. The former Wolves man has registered seven shots on target in his last four outings.

Forest forward Igor Jesus should also have an impact, having fired four shots on target in five outings, even though he was a substitute in three of those games.

Both teams to score is a worthy addition to our bet builder, with Palace scoring in each of their home games while Forest have netted four goals in two away trips.

Palace midfielder Adam Wharton is also going to be targeted by the Forest midfield. The Eagles playmaker has been fouled 11 times this season, more than any other Palace player.
