Nottingham Forest's recent form has been inconsistent, with alternating wins and losses highlighting imbalances in both attack and defence. Their defence has suffered due to the absence of a key central defender, impacting their aerial strength. A midfield suspension has disrupted their tackling and organisation. The attack has also been hit hard, with the top scorer and another forward both injured, leaving only a few players to carry the scoring burden. Everton's recent record has also been up and down. Their attacking efficiency is low, making it difficult to create scoring opportunities, although their defence is relatively solid. The absence of their main striker weakens their finishing ability, and a midfield suspension affects their tackling and passing. Several key defenders are also out injured, potentially creating vulnerabilities in their wing defence. However, the team is good at compact defending and set-piece tactics, with some players' aerial abilities being important for scoring opportunities. Nottingham Forest has shown improved form recently, with a better record in their last ten matches compared to Everton. Nottingham Forest's ability to withstand pressure is expected to be higher than Everton's. Recent matches have seen a good number of goals. Nottingham Forest's recent excellent results depend on improvements in both attack and defence, demonstrating strong form. Historically, Nottingham Forest has the advantage. Although Everton's recent form is not very good. The team's determination to win is strong. We will wait and see. Recommendation: Under 2.25 goals
