Nottingham Forest v Everton result predicted by supercomputer

Everton are preparing for a trip to face high-flying Nottingham Forest in the Premier League on Saturday.

The Toffees are set to travel to the East Midlands for a clash against Nuno Espirito Santo’s men at the City Ground on 12 April.

This will be far from easy for David Moyes’ side as the Reds look destined to earn a spot in the Champions League for next campaign.

With that being said, the Merseyside outfit will still be keen to go and give a good account of themselves as a prediction has emerged ahead of the clash.

Nottingham Forest backed to beat Everton

It is fair to say that Forest have been the surprise package of the season in the Premier League after only narrowly avoiding relegation last year.

Under Santo’s management, the Reds have become a top counter-attacking side who are more than capable of getting the ball on the floor.

The likes of Callum Hudson-Odoi, Anthony Elanga and Morgan Gibbs-White have been superb in recent weeks and could cause problems for the Toffees.

With that being said, it won’t come as a surprise that Opta Analyst (9 April) have given the East Midlands outfit a 48.3 per cent chance of securing three points.

This leaves Moyes’ men with just a 25.4 per cent opportunity of securing an away win for the first time since mid-February against Crystal Palace.

Everton must turn up against Nottingham Forest

The Toffees are without a win in six games and will be keen to end that run before it extends for too much longer, as the season’s end date edges closer.

Ahead of a move to the Bramley-Moore Dock stadium, a positive run of form will go some way to making the new arena feel like home quickly.

This could all start with a positive result against Forest, who will be hoping to get back to winning ways after their defeat at Aston Villa in their last outing.

It will certainly be interesting to see how the game goes at the City Ground but there is no doubt that both sides will be up for it.
