Nottingham vs Everton prediction 12.04.2025 | Premier League

• Competition: Premier League
• Date: Saturday, 12th April, 2025
• Kickoff: 15:00 UK / 16:00 CEST
• Venue: City Ground (Nottingham)

Nottingham are playing a magnificent season. Most football pundits expected they would slow down as the season progressed, but that was not the case. The Forest are holding themselves in the top five spots which will lead to the Champions League next season. Right now, they are 3rd with 57 points after 31 rounds - a comfortable five points away from dropping out of the top five spots. But considering they will face mostly the teams from the bottom of the lower part of the league's table, we believe they will secure the CL. Additionally, the Forst are doing great in the FA Cup, as they will meet Manchester City in the Semi-Finals.

Everton were among the relegation contenders in the previous three seasons, finishing between 15th and 17th. However, they managed to survive. This season, despite being low on the league's table, they are not even close to being relegated because the bottom three teams (Southampton, Leicester, and Ipswich) have been terrible. Currently, the Toffees are in 15th place with 35 points from 31 matches - 15 away from the danger zone.

Nottingham vs Everton pick: Nottingham to win

Before losing the last game to Aston Villa, Nottingham won five in a row (two of them after the penalties). But that loss was against a good Aston Villa team away from home. At City Ground, Nottingham has been incredible, keeping an 11-game unbeaten run alive. During that time, they won nine of their games, although one of those was after penalties. Additionally, the last two home wins were against Manchester City and United!

Meanwhile, Everton are in poor form, with five draws and one loss. This season, they have been very inconsistent, and we do not believe they can compete with the best teams in the league. Additionally, away from home, the Toffees were much worse than at their pitch, winning only 43% of their total points there.

In the first h2h game this season, Nottingham won 2:0 away from home. Now, considering all the above, we believe the Forest are much closer to winning the upcoming Premier League tie at the City Ground.
