WEST BROMWICH ALBION
After a strong start to the season, West Brom have seemingly run into a brick wall. A goalless draw against Blackpool on Tuesday left them a massive 12 points behind second-placed Bournemouth, 19 games into the new season.
Valerien Ismael’s side has struggled to impose themselves with just two goals scored in their last 5 matches and pressure is on for them to turn things around on Friday, lest they fall further away from the top two automatic promotion places.
The Baggies will be counting on their solid home record (6W, 3D) to try and turn the tide.
NOTTINGHAM FOREST
Nottingham Forest extended their unbeaten run to five games with a goalless draw at home to Luton on Tuesday evening. New boss Steve Cooper has helped them climb up from the relegation zone and they are currently in 13th place, just 4 points off of 8th placed Huddersfield.
That said, they aren’t winning enough games to put more points on the board and have become draw experts with four of their last five games ending in draws.
They have had some success on their travels, going undefeated in their last 7 (4W, 3D), although none of these games was against a side ranked above them on the log

WEST BROM VS NOTTINGHAM FOREST BETTING PREDICTIONS
Both of these teams have struggled to find the back of the net in their recent matches. Under 2.5 goals has landed in the last 4 West Brom games and in 4 of Forest’s last 5 games. With both teams needing a win here to advance their agenda for the season, we feel this will be another closely fought game with goal-scoring opportunities far and few between. As such we find that Under 2.5 goals option @ 1.78 with Greatodds Free Bet quite appealing and we are backing it as our initial tip here.
West Brom will be the aggressor here given they are playing at home and the pressure that is mounting on them. They have had at least 6 corners in their last 5 straight games. They also had 8 the last time they met so backing them get 6 here could pay off and @ 1.66 at 22Bet Welcome Bonus, we feel there is value in picking it for our last call.
