Leeds v Nottingham Forest Betting Tips [4 April 2023]

Leeds United will be playing host to Nottingham Forest in their next game in the Premier League as the two struggling sides look to return to winning ways. Leeds United have 26 points in 17th place going into this game and Nottingham Forest have 27 points, in 15th place. In their last game, Leeds United suffered a 4-1 away loss to league leaders Arsenal. Here they will expect a less challenging encounter, thus fueling their hope to bounce back. In their last 10 matches, Leeds United have posted two wins, and as they look to improve on that, they will also be aiming at bettering their numbers in defence. They haven't managed a clean sheet in the last five matches, and have conceded two or more in four of the last five matches. Both sides have scored in their last three matches, and all three have had over 2.5 goals.

Nottingham Forest were close to their first win in seven matches as they hosted Wolverhampton Wanderers in their last game. However, a Daniel Podence goal seven minutes from time changed everything; they ended up drawing 1-1. Coming into this game, one area they clearly need to work on is the defence, having managed just one clean sheet in their last 10 matches. Nottingham Forest have also conceded two or more goals in four of their last five matches, and both sides have scored in their last four matches. Four of Nottingham Forest’s last five matches have produced over 2.5 goals. Their away run is also poor, showing a run of four straight games that ended in defeat, and two or more goals conceded in each. They have no win in the last six away matches.

Nottingham Forest have one clean sheet in their last 10 matches. The same is the case with Leeds United. Both teams are coming from winless outings, with poor numbers in defence, but have a level of consistency in attack, which has seen their matches produce a lot of goals. Their recent runs are consistent with both teams scoring and thus we will back goals on both sides in this Leeds United v Nottingham Forest game.
