Nottingham Forest V West Ham: Preview, Predicted XI And Betting Odds

West Ham manager David Moyes will be keen to see an improvement following their disappointing display against Manchester City on the opening day.

The Hammers face a Forest side who didn’t get off to a great start either, after losing comprehensively away to Newcastle, but Steve Cooper’s side could be a different beast on their own patch.

In terms of team news, Lukas Fabianski (hip), Craig Dawson (thigh) and Michail Antonio (knock) are all doubts, while Angelo Ogbonna (fitness) and Nayef Aguerd (ankle) are both still sidelined.

West Ham’s Predicted XI To Play Nottingham Forest:

Areola, Coufal, Johnson, Zouma, Cresswell, Soucek, Fornals, Rice, Bowen, Scamacca, Cornet

Forest have doubts over Ryan Yates (knee) and Steve Cook (knock), while Scott McKenna (knock) and Omar Richards (leg) are not expected to be available.

Nottingham Forest’s Predicted XI:

Henderson, Williams, Worrall, Niakhate, Soh, Toffolo, Colback, Lingard, O’Brien, Awoniyi, Johnson

The bookies have made West Ham the favourites with Betway pricing them at 10/11 to secure the win. A draw is 13/5 with Bet 365 while a victory for Forest is 10/3 at Betfred.

Predicted Score – 1-1
