Nottingham Forest vs Coventry Predictions

• Coventry City’s last away win against Nottingham Forest was in 2004.
• Last season Nottingham Forest won both games against Coventry City via a 2-1 scoreline.
• The hosts have won their last three home league games.
• The visitors have conceded in their last eight matches.

Forest out for revenge

Nottingham Forest’s season becomes even more remarkable with each passing matchday when you consider how they started the season. They secured just one solitary point across their first seven Championship matches but consistent good form and an ability to pick up results since then has seen them firmly in the mix for the playoffs. They’ll come into this one looking to avenge their 2-1 loss to Coventry in the first fixture and given the hosts have won their last three home matches, they’ll feel exceptionally confident of being able to earn a win here.

Coventry City showed fight and determination in their last match as they were able to find a 99th-minute equaliser at home to Blackburn Rovers last time out. Gaffer Mark Robins stated that “it’s taken about two-and-a-half years off my life, no doubt, at a minimum” and you wonder how it will have affected the players. They’re certainly good enough to get a win here, but they don’t tend to do that well at The City Ground, failing to leave Nottingham as victors since 2004.

Value is on the hosts

We think the hosts are a little bit overpriced here and we believe the value is on the hosts emerging as winners here. A 2-1 scoreline has been a familiar theme when these two sides meet and we think that it could happen again here.
