- Venue: City Ground
We are set for an intriguing contest on Wednesday night as Nottingham Forest and Manchester United face off in the fifth round of the FA Cup.
Nuno Espírito Santo started off strong as coach of Forest, but his team has had a tough time securing victories lately. Despite being only two spots above the red zone in the Premier League and having just a single win in their last eight games, the Tricky Trees have reason to be optimistic. They have already defeated United at this location earlier in the season.
Meanwhile, Manchester United persisted in their pursuit of a European spot last weekend as they played host to Fulham in the Premier League. The Red Devils ended their winning streak of five consecutive victories in all competitions with a 2-1 loss. This defeat has expanded their gap to the top four to eight points.
Nottingham Forest vs Manchester United Betting Tips: Both teams to score
Although Nottingham Forest has struggled with victories recently, they haven’t had the same problem with scoring goals. The Tricky Trees have managed to score at least one goal in each of their last six games. During this period, only one bet on “both teams to score &— yes” has been lost.
Manchester United have no issues scoring goals, however, their defense has been inconsistent recently. In their last seven games across all competitions, The Red Devils have only managed to keep a clean sheet once, with both teams scoring in six of these matches.

Nottingham Forest team news
It is anticipated that head coach Nuno Espírito Santo will make alterations to the team that began the 4-2 loss to Aston Villa in their last match.
After providing an assist off the bench in the previous game, Divock Origi is expected to vie for a starting position. However, it seems unlikely that the ex-Liverpool player will replace Taiwo Awoniyi.
Nuno Tavares, Moussa Niakhate, Ibrahim Sangaré, Cheikhou Kouyaté, Willy Boly, and Ola Aina are all receiving treatment for their respective injuries.
