Nottingham Forest won this corresponding fixture 1-0 last season thanks to a late Callum Hudson-Odoi goal but circumstances are very different heading into this clash.
The defeat at the City Ground was one of 16 suffered by Manchester City in what was Pep Guardiola ’s worst season as a manager, while Forest were enjoying a magnificent campaign that had them pushing for a top-four finish.
This time around, Forest are battling to escape the relegation dogfight after an awful start while second-placed City look to be back to near their best.
They head to Nottingham having won seven successive matches in all competitions and we expect them to make it eight by winning both halves @ 7/2 , which is our opening Nottingham Forest vs Manchester City prediction.

Form Guides
Nottingham Forest Form Guide
Sean Dyche has done a fantastic job in trying to repair the early-season damage at Forest and although they lost 1-0 at Fulham on Monday, they remain five points above the relegation zone.
When the former Everton boss took over in October , Forest were stuck in the bottom three of the Premier League , without a win in 10 matches in all competitions and had suffered four successive home defeats.
Dyche has now turned the City Ground into something of a fortress with four wins and a draw in six matches under his stewardship and they have the chance to improve that record in the upcoming visits of City and Everton .
Forest and City both rank in the top six for corners won in the Premier League this season – at a combined average of more than 11 per game – so, looking at the Nottingham Forest vs Manchester City odds, 15/8 for over 11.5 corners in total could appeal.
Over 11.5 corners @ 15/8
Manchester City Form Guide
Only Aston Villa have been able to match City ’s stunning form over the last month.
Since suffering back-to-back defeats to Newcastle and Bayer Leverkusen , City have recorded seven consecutive wins while scoring an average of three goals per game.
They have also looked tight in defence, with the only goal conceded in their last five matches being against Real Madrid at the Bernabeu .
Erling Haaland is also back amongst the goals after a mini drought and doubles in his last two games has left him with 38 for club and country this season.
The Norway ace is 14/5 to add at least two more goals at the City Ground , while Phil Foden is 15/8 to continue his rich vein of scoring form which has seen him net six times in his last seven games and that completes our Nottingham Forest vs Manchester City betting tips.
BOYLE Sports ’ Sub Swap feature means those bets would transfer to the incoming player if Haaland or Foden are substituted, giving you a double chance to win.
