Nottingham Forest vs Bristol City 07.02.2024 Prediction: FA Cup

Match Overview

Nottingham Forest host Bristol City at the City Ground in Nottingham in a match in the English FA Cup on Wednesday. The visiting side hold all the aces in this game, but one cannot be too sure. Bristol City are not quite going through their most beautiful phase in life, and this shall allow Villa to come back and push them out of their comfort zone. 

Key Highlights 

City's defence has not been as watertight this season as it had been in the previous few seasons. There have been a lot of calls from the supporters of the club for the sacking of coach Liam Manning, but this might be too soon to take a call as big as that. For the moment, City need to focus on their FA Cup campaign and make sure that they take as many points off this game as possible.

Injury Report

While Divock Origi has been ruled out of this game for Forest, City will have to make do without the services of Scott Twine, Robert Atkinson and Mark Sykes among others.

Prediction

There have been a total of 21 games recorded between these two teams in the past, out of which Forest have won just seven. City have been victorious on eight occasions while the rest of the matches were played out as drawn encounters. We expect BTTS (both teams to score) in this game. However, we concede that Forest have a massive advantage.
