Newcastle vs Nottingham Forest Bet Builder Tips 2.00PM

St James’ Park hosts a high-stakes clash where Newcastle’s European momentum collides with Nottingham Forest’s domestic crisis. Eddie Howe’s men are desperate to turn their Champions League form into Premier League points, while Ange Postecoglou is already under huge pressure after a nightmare start with Forest.

This could be an intense battle between a side rebuilding confidence and another simply fighting to survive. Here’s the breakdown for each pick 👇

- Fulltime Result: FT Result: Newcastle

Reason for tip: Newcastle looked revitalised in midweek, dismantling Royale Union SG with sharp pressing and ruthless finishing. That win should give Howe’s side the lift they’ve been lacking in the league. St James’ Park has seen some narrow late heartbreaks recently, but against a fragile Forest side missing defensive leader Murillo, the Magpies should create plenty. Forest’s winless run of eight games shows just how deep their problems run, with Postecoglou’s team struggling at both ends. Add in Newcastle’s home crowd demanding a reaction, and three points for the hosts feels very realistic.

- Both Teams to Score - Yes

Reason for tip: Forest’s issues are obvious, but they still carry attacking threat through Chris Wood, who has an excellent record against his old club, and Elanga’s pace on the break. Newcastle, meanwhile, are usually strong defensively, yet lapses at set-pieces and late goals conceded have cost them this season. With Murillo out, Forest’s back line looks exposed, but they’ve scored in four of their last five away games, suggesting they can still nick one. Given Newcastle’s attacking intent and Forest’s desperation to prove a point, goals at both ends look highly likely in this contest.

- Corner Match Bet - Most Corners: Newcastle

Reason for tip: Howe’s team thrive on set-pieces and wide overloads, with Trippier and Gordon constantly forcing corners through aggressive wing play. Newcastle average over six corners per home game this season, compared to Forest’s much lower tally away from home, where they often sit deep and struggle to sustain pressure. Against Midtjylland, Forest conceded multiple corners by failing to deal with aerial balls – a weakness Newcastle will exploit. With Woltemade’s height and Burn’s threat at the back post, expect plenty of forced corners for the hosts as they look to break Forest down.

- Team to Get Most Shots on Target - Most Shots on Target: Newcastle

Reason for tip: Newcastle are a volume-shooting side at home, often testing the keeper from range through Gordon, Longstaff, and Guimarães. Forest, meanwhile, rely heavily on counter-attacks and rarely generate more than 2–3 shots on target in away fixtures. With the Magpies dominating possession and creating chances in waves, they’re strongly favoured to win the shots-on-target battle.

- Team to Get Most Cards - Most Cards: Nottingham Forest

Reason for tip: Forest’s lack of control in midfield often sees them resort to late tackles and desperate fouls, particularly when chasing possession. Their frustration showed in Europe, and with the crowd roaring Newcastle on, they’ll be forced into high-pressure defensive situations. Newcastle, despite their intensity, usually channel aggression through pressing structure, while Forest have been one of the league’s most ill-disciplined sides so far. With Postecoglou’s side likely camped in their own half, expect their defenders and midfielders to rack up cards as they try to stop Newcastle’s direct runners.
