Man City vs Nottingham Forest prediction and odds ahead of Premier League clash

Manchester City will be eager to continue their flawless start to the season as they prepare to face Nottingham Forest at home on Saturday. While Forest has shown promise in their campaign so far, they are expected to struggle against the superior quality of the reigning champions.

Manchester City has taken their game to another level this season, boasting a perfect record in the Premier League after five matches. They go into this match as the expected favourites at 1/7 with Betfred while Forest are 16/1 to produce a shock and a draw is 7/1.

In their previous Premier League fixture, the Citizens displayed resilience by coming from behind to secure a 3-1 victory against West Ham. Jeremy Doku, Bernardo Silva, and Erling Haaland all found the back of the net in an impressive comeback. They continued their winning streak with a 3-1 triumph over Red Star Belgrade in their opening Champions League match.

Nottingham Forest heads to the Etihad Stadium following a 1-1 draw against Burnley in their most recent Premier League encounter. They took the lead just before halftime through Zeki Amdouni but were unable to hold on as Burnley equalised shortly after the hour mark.

Manager Steve Cooper can take pride in Forest's performance thus far, with the team currently sitting in the top half of the table. They have secured two victories and a draw from their five matches, including an impressive 1-0 win against Chelsea but will need to go up a gear when they head to the Etihad Stadium.

Erling Haaland to score anytime - 4/11

Man City to win and both teams to score - 9/5
