Both meetings between these sides ended in draws last term, which means that the Toffees are now unbeaten in their last three away league matches against Forest. However, Everton have never previously gone four matches without defeat at the City Ground. But, Forest hasn’t recorded a home win against the Toffees since a 3-2 success in September 1995.

Interestingly, Forest have lost each of their last two matches by a 3-2 scoreline. Since the start of last season, no side in the Premier League has lost more games despite scoring at least two goals in a match. Forest were beaten at the City Ground in their previous match by Brighton, which ended their eight-game unbeaten home record in the Premier League.

Nottingham Forest vs Everton Prediction

This is a tricky game to call this weekend, as both of these sides will be chasing maximum points. However, despite being well beaten by United last weekend, Everton showed that there is an attacking threat within their side. Therefore, we will be siding with the Toffees to continue their decent run of form away from home at the City Ground.
