Everton and Nottingham Forest go head to head in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon with both sides looking to maintain their recent impressive forms.
The hosts have been cooking with gas since losing 4-0 to Manchester United at Old Trafford on the first day of December. Sean Dyche’s Everton bring a run of four consecutive games into Sunday’s game; a run that includes a 4-0 win over Wolves at Goodison Park. With two of those draws coming against Arsenal and Chelsea, the Toffees will fancy their chances of getting something against Forest this weekend.
Nottingham Forest meanwhile are one of the most in-form English Premier League sides at the moment. The visitors boast four wins from their last four outings and kept a clean sheet in half of those encounters. Their last encounter saw them beat Tottenham Hotspur 1-0 and before then they beat the likes of Brentford, Aston Villa and Man United.
Everton vs Nottingham Forest Betting Tips: Under 2.5 goals
After conceding 13 goals in their opening four Premier League games of the campaign, Everton needed to rethink their defensive approach, and Sean Dyche has managed to turn things around. The Blues kept five clean sheets in their last seven games and just two of those games produced more than two goals.
Nottingham Forest also have a defence one can rely on, with the visitors keeping a clean sheet in each of their last two Premier League outings. All two fixtures ended with under 2.5 goals, and I fancy Sunday’s game to end similarly.
- Best Tip: Under 2.5 goals

Everton team news
Having come from a goal down to draw 1:1 with the Champions Man City last weekend, head coach Sean Dyche will see no reasons to make alterations to make changes to his XI.
Ashley Young will once again be available for selection after missing the trip to the Etihad due to a suspension.
Dwight McNeil is a doubt due to injury, but the Toffees have not injuries or suspensions ahead of Sunday’s clash with Nottingham Forest.
