*****

For the Premier League match between Nottingham Forest and Crystal Palace on 21 October 2024 at City Ground, it is expected to be a tight contest.

Nottingham Forest have had a more stable start to the season, currently sitting mid-table, whereas Crystal Palace have struggled and find themselves in the relegation zone.

Forest have been defensively strong, conceding just six goals in the league, but have also found it difficult to score, with Chris Wood being their main goal threat. Key players like Morgan Gibbs-White will be missing due to injury, which could affect their attacking fluidity.

Crystal Palace, on the other hand, have struggled both defensively and offensively, particularly after losing key player Michael Olise in the summer. Eberechi Eze will need to step up for them, but Palace’s attacking form has been underwhelming.

Recent meetings between these two teams have often ended in draws, including low-scoring games. Given Forest’s home advantage and better form, a narrow victory for Forest is a likely outcome.

Our Prediction 2-1
