Swansea vs Nottingham Forest Prediction & Betting Tips - FA Cup
by Daniel Ngulu | in FA Cup Predictions
Very little fault can be picked in Swansea City’s season this term and they seem primed for a return to the Premier League but while at it, they also hold high FA Cup ambitions. The team is set to host fellow Championship side Nottingham Forest in the fourth round of England’s oldest competition this Saturday. The two sides head to the game on contrasting runs – Swansea unbeaten in six matches and Nottingham coming straight from defeat. In their six unbeaten matches, Swansea have five wins and so far, they have the best defence in the Championship. They have scored twice in four of their last five matches and have four clean sheets in the five matches and are well rested, having last played on Saturday. In the last round of this competition, Swansea eliminated League Two side Stevenage with a 2-0 win and head to this clash as favorites. They have scored in both halves in four of their last five matches.
Nottingham Forest on the other hand, are coming from a 2-1 home loss to Middlesbrough in the Championship. Defender Yuri Riberio was sent off very late in the Wednesday game, which further complicates matters. The defeat brought to a halt the visitors’ seven-match unbeaten run, which lifted them from the bottom three in the Championship. Nottingham’s current run is their best this season. In the last eight matches they have one loss, while in the earlier seven matches, they had six losses. Nottingham have not been the best in attack; in the last 15 matches they have scored twice in just two and come here with just one away win in nine, with one clean sheet. The FA Cup has also not been a very good hunting ground, the team having lost seven of the last 10 in the competition. They also have six straight away losses in the cup.

Our Swansea vs Nottingham Forest Prediction
Swansea are unbeaten in six matches and have the best defence in the Championship; this form will definitely come to the fore here, as they face a fellow Championship side. Nottingham have not had a good season so far, and their FA Cup run is also poor, especially away from home. A win for Swansea should be an easy pick here.
