Fenerbahce vs Nottingham Forest Preview and Team News

Fenerbahce Team News

Fenerbahce enter this match in excellent form, having gone unbeaten in five games, including four victories. They’ve scored 12 goals during that run, and their defenders have lived up to expectations, conceding a mere five. 

Most recently, the Yellow Canaries stunned Trabzonspor with a 3-2 win in the Super Lig despite keeping just 42% possession. Attacking midfielder Marco Asensio took a total of three shots and ended up with a goal and an assist to his name. 

The 30-year-old also made four vital defensive contributions. Defensive midfielder Matteo Guendouzi, meanwhile, impressed with 93% passing accuracy. 

Archie Brown is the only player unavailable for this fixture.

Fenerbahce predicted lineup vs Nottingham Forest (4-3-1-2): Ederson; Mulder, Oosterwolde, Skriniar, Semedo; Yuksek, Guendouzi, Kante; Asensio; Akturkoglu, Talisca.

Nottingham Forest Team News

For Nottingham Forest, this game will be quite challenging, as they’ve won just twice in their last five outings. Notably, the Tricky Trees sacked three managers this season – Nuno Espirito Santo, Ange Postecoglou, and Sean Dyche – which signals that there is some deep-rooted instability at the club. 

The team played out a goalless draw with Wolverhampton Wanderers despite dominating possession (63%) and firing a whopping 35 shots. 10 of those efforts were on target, but none found the back of the net, highlighting their ongoing struggles in the final third. 

The visitors will be without several key players due to injuries, including Murillo, Chris Wood, Willy Boly, John Victor, Matz Sels, and Nicolo Savona.

Nottingham Forest predicted lineup vs Fenerbahce (4-2-3-1): Ortega; Williams, Morato, Milenkovic, Aina; Anderson, Sangare; Hudson-Odoi, Gibbs-White, Hutchinson; Lucca.

Fenerbahce vs Nottingham Forest Prediction

  • Pick: Fenerbahce to win or draw
  • Odds: -278 (20Bet)
  • Correct score prediction: Fenerbahce 3-1 Nottingham Forest

Fenerbahce’s strong recent form points toward either a home win or at least a draw. Forest have been deeply unstable this season, and as shown against Wolves, unable to be clinical in the final third. 

The hosts, meanwhile, have already scored 10 goals in this tournament. They’ve also avoided defeat in three of their last four home games, whereas Forest’s showing on the road has been rather poor, with just one victory in three outings.

Fenerbahce vs Nottingham Forest Prediction, Betting Tip

  • Pick: Total over 2.5 goals
  • Odds: -103 (20Bet)

We expect to see more than 2.5 goals (at least three) in this encounter. Fenerbahce should play on the front foot, given their recent form (12 goals in the last five matches). 

Forest’s defensive structure has been shaky, as evidenced by their recent draw with Wolves. They allowed their opponents to take four of their seven shots from inside the box, meaning that their man-marking went haywire. 

Interestingly, each of Fenerbahce’s last three games and two of Forest’s last four have produced more than 2.5 goals.
