Nottingham Forest vs Tottenham Hotspur

, KO: 16:30 Aug 28, 2022, City Ground
Tottenham Hotspur

TOTTENHAM HOTSPUR will be looking to continue their unbeaten start to the Premier League season when they face Nottingham Forest at the City Ground on Sunday afternoon.

Antonio Conte’s appointment undoubtedly turned Spurs' season around last term and the signs continue to be promising across the opening weeks of the new campaign.

The Lilywhites made light work of Southampton on the opening weekend of the season before earning a last-gasp 2-2 draw in a fiery London derby with Chelsea at Stamford Bridge.

After recording a narrow 1-0 win over Wolves last weekend, Tottenham now turn their attention to Sunday’s trip to Nottingham Forest.

After falling to a 2-0 loss at Newcastle in their first Premier League fixture since 1999, Nottingham Forest got up running with a 1-0 win over West Ham, bringing up my Bet Builder in the process.

Steve Cooper’s side followed up on that triumph with a 1-1 draw at Everton last weekend, and they will consider themselves unlucky not to have picked up maximum points at Goodison Park.

Outright Betting

Despite avoiding defeat in each of their last 11 league matches at home, Nottingham Forest enter this contest as 13/2 (BetVictor) outsiders while a City Ground stalemate is also deemed unlikely at 17/5 (BetVictor) with the same firm. 

Tottenham, who have won five of their last six Premier League matches, make the journey north to the Midlands as heavily-fancied 9/20 (Bet 365) favourites.

Betting Angles

While Nottingham Forest will be up against the odds on Sunday, the hosts are priced up at 5/6 (Bet 365) to hit over three corners during this dust-up and that price makes appeal.

Steve Cooper tends to set up his side with a system that focuses on width from his wing-backs, and it would be fair to say operating in these areas increases the probability of earning corner kicks.

That was evident in Forest's first Premier League home match of the season, on an afternoon where they clocked up six flag kicks against West Ham.

What's more, the Tricky Trees, who will be roared on by a passionate home crowd, were averaging over six corners per home game in the second tier last season, covering the 4+ line in each of their last 18 City Ground assignments.

It's also worth noting that Tottenham have conceded 16 corners across their opening three top-flight tussles of the season so far, including six at home to Wolves last weekend.

With all this in mind, backing newly-promoted Nottingham Forest to deliver a minimum of four corner kicks on Sunday stands out at 5/6 with Bet 365.

After I successfully backed Harry Kane to score last Saturday, I'll take the Tottenham talisman to repeat the trick again this weekend at 24/23 with SBK.

The Spurs goalgetter has scored in five of his last six Premier League appearances, so I'm more than happy to snap up an odds-against quote on him striking at the City Ground on Sunday.
