After a disappointing home defeat against Norwich City at the weekend, Forest will be looking to bounce back quickly when they head North to face Bolton Wanderers in this mid-week fixture
Forest can go into this match in a positive frame of mind, as they are undefeated against Bolton Wanderers in all but one of their last ten head-to-heads and are priced as 5/4 favourites with BetBright. The home side have also lost three of their last four Championship matches – something Forest will hope to use to their phycological advantage.
Full Time Result
Bolton Wanderers – 12/5
Draw – 11/5
Nottingham Forest – 5/4
Anyone wondering whether or not to place a BTTS bet this evening would find it interesting to hear that both teams have scored in six of Nottingham Forest's last eight away Championship matches.
