Key stats

  • This is the first UEFA meeting between Nottingham Forest and Ferencváros, and it also marks Forest’s debut against Hungarian opposition.
  • Nottingham Forest have lost only two of their last 14 UEFA competition matches at home (W9 D3).
  • Nottingham Forest have kept 11 clean sheets in their last 13 UEFA competition matches at home.
  • Ferencváros have won only two of their 11 previous UEFA meetings with English opposition (D4 L5). They are a winless in the five matches played in England, with two draws and three defeats.
  • Ferencváros are unbeaten in the league phase of this season’s UEFA Europa League (W4 D3) and have suffered just one defeat in their 13 UEFA matches overall this campaign (W8 D4).

Nottingham Forest vs Ferencvaros prediction

Nottingham Forest could overtake eighth placed outfit Real Betis but there are seven teams in between themselves and the Andalusians, and the playoffs are likely. They did manage to earn themselves a much-needed defeat of Brentford in the relegation battle at the Gtech Community Stadium the other day.

They now face a Ferencvaros side that, under the management of Robbie Keane, are indeed tucked inside the top eight with a brilliant European campaign in which they have avoided defeat after seven matches. The Hungarians shared a 1-1 draw with Rafa Benitez’ Panathinaikos in Budapest last week.

Given how Ferencvaros have failed to lose this season in the UEL and Forest may well rotate given their situation, a good value bet in favour of the visitors looks the way to go for this one.

Nottingham Forest vs Ferencvaros tip: Double chance – Ferencvaros to win or draw
