Betting Predictions
In the 2024–25 Premier League season, winless Crystal Palace takes on a Nuno Espirito Santo-less Nottingham Forest at the City Ground on Monday night, hoping that it will be the eighth time lucky.
Before the international break, the Tricky Trees managed a creditable 1-1 draw with Chelsea, but on their home field, the Eagles were defeated 1-0 by league leaders Liverpool.
Head-to-Head
Forest has played Palace four times since rejoining the Premier League, and despite their record of W1 D3 L0, Forest has never lost to them. However, the past three meetings have finished in draws. In March of this year, these teams’ most recent match took place at this location and finished in a 1-1 draw.
Although Palace has had some bad luck this season, it does not feel good enough for a team with their caliber to be hanging about in the relegation zone.
Conversely, Forest has only lost once this season and recently drew with Chelsea following their victory against Liverpool at Anfield.
Team News
Santo was given a three-game touchline ban, but Forest star Morgan Gibbs-White, who admitted guilt to a charge of improper conduct in the Brighton match, will also serve an additional suspension. It’s possible that Gibbs-White’s punishment coincided with his ankle injury against Chelsea.
In addition to serving a one-match suspension for his two bookable offenses at Stamford Bridge, Nicolas Dominguez and Anthony Elanga should replace midfielder Ward-Prowse in the starting lineup. More happily, first-choice goalkeeper Sels appears to be fine to play even though he was left out of the Belgium team; nevertheless, Ibrahim Sangare and Danilo are out for the count.
Chadi Riad, Chris Richards, Cheick Doucoure, and Matheus Franca are all listed as doubtful for Palace’s match on Monday. With Matt Turner unable to play against his parent team.
Nonetheless, Adam Wharton was cleared to play despite pulling out of England Under-21 duties due to a similar problem, while Daniel Munoz recovered from the adductor injury that kept him out of the game during the first half against Liverpool.
It wouldn’t be shocking to see Glasner keep with the same starting lineup for Palace after they gave Liverpool a terrific run for their money two weeks ago. Eddie Nketiah, Ismaila Sarr, and Eberechi Eze will continue to play in the final third, while Jean-Philippe Mateta will warm up the bench.
Probable Line-Up
Nottingham Forest XI:
Sels; Aina, Murillo, Milenkovic, Moreno; Yates, Dominguez; Hudson-Odoi, Anderson, Elanga; Wood
Crystal Palace XI:
Henderson; Guehi, Chalobah, Lacroix; Munoz, Wharton, Lerma, Mitchell; Sarr, Nketiah, Eze
Verdict
Tip Under 2.5 Goals✅
Reason
The previous performances of both teams definitely point to a close encounter with few goals. Given that fewer than three goals have been scored in seven of Forest’s eight games this season and four of Palace’s past six Premier League games, backing under 2.5 in the match is available at respectable odds.
Compared to the other top-half teams, Forest is predicted to score far less goals, more in line with a relegation battler. Additionally, despite conceding ten times as many goals as projected, Palace’s goals against average is lower than that of seven clubs in better places.

Tip: Draw❌
Reason
Tricky Trees, who have been excellent at the back this season, may find that playing defense is the best kind of attack when it comes to Forest, who lose Gibbs-White, their most important offensive player.
Though their agonizing wait for all three will undoubtedly continue, the Eagles’ two-week break came at a very good time. They should be more than capable of earning a point at the City Ground.
