Our Nottingham Forest vs Reading Prediction
Just nine days ago, these two sides faced off, and it ended 1-1; the fourth straight match that the two had played to under 2.5 goals. Reading have seen nine of their last 15 matches also produce under 2.5 goals. More than half of Nottingham’s last 15 matches have also seen scores of under 2.5 and they are the least scorers among the top five teams in the table. Reading have conceded two or more in just three of the last 15 matches and Nottingham have conceded the same in just five of 15 matches. Basing on this, we expect a low scoring game and a bet of under 2.5 goals could do.
