Match Preview
This could be a crucial home match for Nottingham Forest in the context of their season, as the club sit just two points above the relegation places after losing two of their last three. Forest has one of the worst defensive records this term, having allowed 41 goals, while they have also struggled in the final third after netting 28 times.
Newcastle appear to be getting their season back on track after suffering four losses on the bounce. However, they will need a massive effort to finish the season in a European position, as they are already eleven points off the top five. Meanwhile, they could drop into the bottom half if they lose this weekend.

Forest landed a shock 3-1 win at St. James’ Park in December, and they will be looking to complete a league double over their rivals for the first time since 1977-78. However, Newcastle have an excellent record at the City Ground, as they have avoided defeat in their last seven visits in the top-flight.
Forest’s recent home form would be a concern, as they have lost five of their last six. That is as many defeats as they had suffered in their previous 24 since returning to the Premier League. Newcastle’s 4-4 draw against Luton last weekend means that they have conceded at least three goals in six of their last nine.
Nottingham Forest vs Newcastle Prediction
Defensively, there are still big questions for Newcastle to answer, and Nottingham Forest could get joy in the final third this weekend. Therefore, a chance is taken on the hosts to land maximum points.
